Address Unknown at The Berman Center for the Performing Arts
The Berman Center for the Performing Arts Presents , “ADDRESS UNKNOWN” “Violence and intolerance breed violence and intolerance” a play adapted by the “The Woman Who Jolted America" Sunday, April 6th at 7:00pm.
The story consists of the exchange of correspondence between and American-Jewish art gallery owner in San Francisco and his German business partner who returned to Munich in 1932. The deterioration of their erstwhile close relationship - as the German is gradually seduced by Nazism and is complicit in the betrayal of his friend's sister to the Gestapo - is apparent from the text of the letters. The skillful surprise ending, in which an intriguing revenge is leveraged via transatlantic correspondence, does not diminish the terrible darkness of a relationship doomed by history and opportunistic weakness.
