AFTER THE QUAKE

AFTER THE QUAKE

by Haruki Murakami
Adapted for the stage by Frank Galati
Directed by Randy Baker

October 7 – November 6, 2011

“It’s strong, stirring stuff—a modern fable with an oblique moral. It enchants us like a dream and kicks like a nightmare.”
–Washington City Paper

In the aftermath of a terrible earthquake, a writer fueled by heartbreak heals a broken little girl, while a menacing frog saves Tokyo from an enormous worm.  Adapted from the short stories of Haruki Murakami, Galati’s play brings to life Murakami’s “hallucinatory world where the real and surreal merge and overlap, where dreams and real-life nightmares are impossible to tell apart”. (New York Times)
