Malthouse Theatre Stages A GOLEM STORY, 6/10-7/2
The Malthouse Theatre presents Lally Katz's A GOLEM STORY, June 10 through July 2 at the Merlyn Theatre.
Our enduring fascination with the myths of vampires, demons and werewolves, has haunted our children and hemorrhaged our literature for millennia. But long before Dr Frankenstein's monster there was the Golem; a superhuman figure fashioned from mud and endowed with terrible strength.
Playwright Lally Katz has deftly weaved humour, philosophy and fantasy to create a gothic and romantic rendering of this classic myth. Director Michael Kantor returns to the Merlyn Theatre stage to inject mischief, magic and soaring Yiddish melodies into this cautionary tale of monumental proportions. In their hands, this monster becomes even more; a troubling yet seductive mirror to our contemporary selves.
