34% off (Sale price $16.50, Reg. Price $25.00) :: For a long time, the far right has hid in the shadows. Now, it no longer needs to. In Winter Solstice, five people gather on Christmas Eve in a bourgeois, intellectual household. Albert, a writer, is engaged in a ferocious spat with his wife Bettina, a film-maker, over the arrival of her mother, Corinna. But it is Corinna who sparks the dramatic crisis by inviting a man she met on the train, Rudolph, to stay with the family. Rudolph is urbane, civilized, and polite — the essence of cosmopolitan charm. He entertains everyone by playing Chopin and Bach on the piano, but when he reveals that he is a doctor with Paraguayan connections, we realize that he is the silken embodiment of a Nazi past that Germany has thought long-buried. The West Coast premiere of this transfixing new work from acclaimed German playwright Roland Schimmelpfennig powerfully demonstrates the unnerving logic of the new right and the seeming impotence of liberalism to combat it. Bitterly comic, naturalistic and surrealistic by turns, combining live cameras with onstage action, the play exerts the same hypnotic spell as its menacing visitor — an insidiousness that makes him, in Schimmelpfennig’s eyes, a lethal threat.The tickets identified in this promotion are made available through Goldstar.
