'The Pillowman' at Villagers Theatre

Fearless Productions presents "The Pillowman" at Villagers Theatre.

The show performs at 8 p.m. on May 21, 22, and 23, and 2 p.m on May 24. Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for seniors and students and are available online. No group rates or discounts are available.

With echoes of Stoppard, Kafka, and the Brothers Grimm, "The Pillowman" centers on a writer in an unnamed totalitarian state who is being interrogated about the gruesome content of his short stories and their similarities to a series of child murders. The result is an urgent work of theatrical bravura and an unflinching examination of the very nature and purpose of art.

The show is written by Martin McDonagh and is directed by Samantha Ambler.
