or Huis Clos , by Jean-Paul Sartre, translated by Frank Hauser. A modern
European classic and a dramatic representation of Sartre's philosophy of existentialism. Three characters find themselves trapped together in a Second Empire drawing room. But the room is in hell, and the three characters will be yoked together for eternity, tormenting each other with the evil events in their lives. The play was first produced in May 1944, just a month before the Allied invasion of France.
Director Michael Earley
