Synopsis:
Join Elza Zagreda, writer and performer of the wildly successful Corn Bread & Feta Cheese: Growing up FAT & Albanian, as she unravels the one the last mysteries of the oldest people of the Balkans. In DIVORCE! Albanian Style, Elza explores the unique cultural institution of an 'Albanian Arranged Marriages' and the creative ways Albanians choose to end them. What EXACTLY are grounds for an Albanian Divorce? Can I really divorce my wife if I think shes too ugly? Can I divorce my husband for having too many handguns in the house? Can I have my wifes 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
