Charges (The Supplicants)

Theatre Y
3611 W Cermak Rd Chicago

Nobel Prize winner Elfriede Jelinek’s Charges (The Supplicants) is a cry for the displaced. Originally written to address the global refugee crisis, Theatre Y’s production— co-directed by Melissa Lorraine and Héctor Álvarez— turns the lens squarely on modern-day America. In Chicago’s own neighborhoods, the threat of removal looms over our neighbors every day.
