ABOUT IN A YEAR WITH 13 MOONS

When the object of his affection off-handedly commented, "too bad you're not a girl," Erwin disappeared to Casablanca and returned as Elvira. Now, adrift and alone, Elvira revisits the people and places of the past, desperately searching for the identity and love she's never known.

The world premiere of In a Year with 13 Moons-a new adaptation of Rainer Werner Fassbinder's melodramatic, darkly comic, and unsettling New German Cinema masterpiece-is staged by RoBert Woodruff, "the country's most adventurous director" (Time Out New York), and features Bill Camp, "one of the bravest, smartest, and most physically intense actors in New York" (The New York Times).

IN A YEAR WITH 13 MOONS was commissioned by Yale Repertory Theatre. Development and production support are provided by Yale's Binger Center for New Theatre and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
