The Screens (2009)

by Jean Genet
Duration: 5hrs
Performed at Salem Art Works, USA

Enter Warda, the Greatest Whore In The World, The Sergeant, whose every button shines; Saïd, Mother and Leila, who will turn upside down and inside out everything you thought you knew. In this new order, the cruelty of soldiers lights up the night, and the dead know the flies by name. Welcome to a world in which becoming a hero is the worst of all possible fates, and betrayal the ultimate triumph.

Performed outdoors on a 120 acre farm in upstate New York, and lasting 5 hours with a cast of 30 performers.
