The Stone [play]

Play written by German playwright Marius von Mayenburg, translated by Maja Zade.

"This is our house underneath all this mildew and junk. I know every stone."

1934 - A young couple buy the house from a Jewish family, and so the myth begins

1953 - The couple's daughter discovers the stone

1973 - The family return to claim what's rightfully theirs

1993 - The house is back in their possession

"As a house passes from owner to owner, and from generation to generation, the secrets buried in the garden and seeping from the walls reveal themselves."

Marius von Mayenburg's new play examines the reverberations created by 60 years of German history."
