Tanghalang Ateneo's "The Death of Memory" Extended!

Due to popular demand,

The Death of Memory
is EXTENDED!

December 17, Monday, 7pm and
December 18, Tuesday, 7pm

Rizal Mini-Theater,
Ateneo de Manila University

Tanghalang Ateneo's "The Death of Memory"
Four people are trapped in a nowhere land where time has stopped, and with no memory of how they got there, and no ideas on how to get out. Each one carries a painful memory -- sexual abuse, abandonment, murder -- that assaults them at unpredictable moments and ties them to this purgatorial prison. A Keeper holds them in this limbo of time and space. Will they be able to free themselves from this limbo? How? This intense and imaginative play examines the strength of the human will to live and choose, to fight against paralyzing pasts, and to move on.

FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY
