THEATRE WORKS PRESENTS
Masterpieces of the
Oral and Intangible
Heritage of Humanity
BY HEATHER MCDONALD | DIRECTED BY NADIA TASS
21 JULY - 1 AUGUST | THEATRE WORKS
BY HEATHER MCDONALD | DIRECTED BY NADIA TASS
Inside a war-ravaged museum, now a makeshift prison, three women are forced together: a soldier shaped by violence, a nurse guarding her secrets, and an art restorer fighting to protect what little beauty remains.
As the walls close in, each must confront the cost of survival, the power of truth, and the fragility of humanity itself.
MASTERPIECES OF THE ORAL AND INTANGIBLE HERITAGE OF HUMANITY is a tense, poetic and unflinching examination of what endures when everything else is lost: art, faith, compassion, and the will to hope.
In a world once again torn by conflict and division, this story feels urgently of our time. It asks: when history is erased, who will remember what made us human?
