[Ensemble Theatre]

*Ensemble Theatre *continues its 44th Season with another powerful two
hander...
*THE ISLAND*

*By Athol Fugard, John Kani, & Winston NtshonaDirected By Sarah May*

*F**eaturing the amazing talents of two local Cleveland actors ::*

*Robert Williams (as John) and Nnamdi Okpala (as Winston)*
John and Winston are black political prisoners in South Africa, spending
their days at hard labor and their evenings rehearsing Sophocles'
‘Antigone’. Though the two men are deeply bonded to one another, their
friendship is tested when John discovers that his most recent appeal was
successful, while Winston is still looking at years of brutal incarceration
ahead. A profile on the depth of human resilience in the face of
unspeakable injustice and racism.


*While “The Island” may have been fueled by the highly specific iniquities
of a now-dismantled political system, the play speaks to any place, any
culture, where liberties are at risk. -Variety.com*
