What EXACTLY are grounds for an Albanian Divorce? Can I really divorce my wife if I think she's too ugly? Can I divorce my husband for having too many handguns in the house? Can I have my wife's underwear tested for DNA to make sure she's not sleeping with someone else? Can I divorce my husband if he lied about having his working papers/green card? How do you make rules from 12th century work in the 21st century marriage? In this controversial play, Elza sheds light on the current marital problems facing young Albanians that their forefathers never dreamt of | |||||
