Why go

In 1938, the crew of a small Danish boat pulls a stranger from the water off the German coast: a Jewish doctor fleeing the Nazis, whom they hide below deck as the risk of discovery grows. Maria Lazar wrote the play in Danish exile in 1938/39, and it only surfaced from her estate recently; Adrian Figueroa's staging premiered here in May 2026. A taut moral drama about how much one is willing to risk for a stranger, running 1 hour 45 minutes without an interval.
