It's like she’s connected to some... truth that other people are blind to. 

Brooklyn, New York, 1938. Sylvia Gellburg reads about the violent attacks against Jewish communities carried out an ocean away in Germany. Most people look away, believing it will pass. Not Sylvia. Her obsession grows and soon she loses her ability to walk — a paralysis her husband, Phillip, believes is all in her head.  Sylvia forms an undeniable bond with Dr Hyman and soon the cracks in her marriage become impossible to ignore. In the face of silence, Sylvia rises in defiance.  

Jordan Fein (Fiddler on the Roof) brings this rarely performed Arthur Miller play to the Young Vic; a bold and passionate story about the consequences of disconnecting with the realities of our world.
