The River of Forgetfulness

About the Show

Four bright young artists grapple with a poisonous living situation. “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”… they quickly learn is a meaningless platitude.

A co-production between The University of Windsor and Outside the March and part of an anthology of original plays commissioned specifically for the School of Dramatic Arts’ graduating BFA students occurring entirely over Zoom. Read more about the anthology, including pieces by Elena Eli Belyea, David Yee and Marcus Youssef.
