SUMMARY
What does it cost to stay silent? What does it take to finally speak?
From the playwright who brought you Matinicus: The Story of Abigail Burgess comes a gripping new play about memory, resilience, and the courage to resist hate.
Based on real events in both our past and much more recent history, The Messenger brings together the voices of four women across generations, each wrestling with prejudice, survival, and the choice to raise their voices against hate. At the heart of the play is Georgia Gabor, a Hungarian Holocaust survivor whose verbatim testimony demands that history not be forgotten. Her story resonates alongside imagined women from 1969, 1993, and 2020, all based in Pasadena, as each faces their own battles with injustice.

This gripping new work is both remembrance and rallying cry. It challenges us to ask where our own voices are needed today, and reminds us that silence has never been neutral.
REVIEWS
“The Messenger is scarily relevant, attendance should be required.”
The Stages of MN
“… this highly praised young playwright continues to be someone to watch…. engaging…fun with a satisfyingly intelligent underpinning. Sophisticated, but all of it comes from well-observed human truths.”
