Danielle Tarento presents Manfred Karge’s one-woman play MAN TO MAN at Park Theatre

Following a successful, sell-out run at the Mercury Theatre, Colchester, Danielle Tarento presents Manfred Karge’s one-woman play Man To Man at Park Theatre, directed by Tilly Branson.  Tricia Kelly returns as the widow Ella who takes on the identity of her dead husband, in a rare British production of this enthralling play that premiered at the Traverse in 1987, catapulting Tilda Swinton to fame.  The show opens in Park90 on 6 November, with previews from 4 November and runs until 30 November. 

What lengths would you go to put the next meal on the table?

As the Nazis come to power in Germany, a young widow discovers that her only means of survival is to take on her dead husband’s job and with it his identity. Her struggle to maintain this extraordinary deception for over forty years forms the focus of this hauntingly poetic and utterly gripping one-woman tour-de-force.
