THE STORY: Willem copes with the sudden death of his younger brother, Pauli. Strained family relationships, self-destruction, and life’s uncertainties are aptly threaded together to create a memorable and poignant story about love and loss.
“The final image of an embarkation is ambiguous, yet A SONG FROM FAR AWAY offers a window into the heart. [The play] reflects us back to ourselves, like pale ghosts peering into the abyss, straining to hear a distant song.” —The Guardian (UK).

Included in the collection Sea Wall; A Song from Far Away; T5.
