Oleanna
Originally debuted in the early 90s, OLEANNA is written by Pulitzer Prize winner David Mametand is set in the close quarters of John’s university office. Despite the play’s distant initial release, the themes exposed remain (even more) relevant in the 21st century. One comes to realize over the hour and a half that there are some interactions between the two characters not seen, leaving the audience to fill in their own blanks and choose their own sides. But as the poster says, “Whoever you choose… You’re wrong”.
