About the Play
​​
"How should we live in a world that's collapsing?"
​
A group of Istanbul theater artists struggle to regain their footing in the aftermath of the 2023 earthquake that devastated Turkey and Syria; Alternating between gallows humor and grief, Stories Will Not Mend explores the effect that violence on a mass scale has on those who witness it from a distance and the inextinguishable drive to create new worlds through art, even when that work feels futile.
