Bonhoeffer: Cell 92
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German pastor and theologian, was a leading spokesperson for the Confessing Church, the Protestant resistance to Hitler and National Socialism. He was eventually arrested and executed. In the eighty years since his death, his books have continued to be influential. In recent years, Bonhoeffer’s legacy has become polarized as people who support Donald Trump and those who oppose him, both claim this theologian as an inspiration for their views. This play focuses on the final period of Bonhoeffer’s life, and promises to be thought-provoking and inspiring.
