Synopsis: | This is an adaptation of a Yiddish play by Peretz Hirshbein. It takes place in a world of seers and miracle-workers, where people are expected to suffer in silence. They wear amulets to protect them, waiting passively for the promise of future happiness. The Amulet is the story of a girl who refuses to wait. The plays unusual style combines elements of Greek tragedy, Russian avant -garde, and the Old Testament. | |||||
