"Ruined"

Highly recommended: Lynn Nottage's Pulitzer Prize-winning, Ruined, a drama of cruelty and human resilience, set in the chaos of civil war in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Under the direction of Kate Whoriskey, the cast--in particular, Portia (Mama Nadi) and Russell G. Jones (Christian)--give memorable and deeply affecting performances, fully embracing the play as they are embraced, supported and well-served by it.

Running now at Manhattan Theatre Club at New York City Center
