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.
