Friedrich Dürrenmatt
The Visit of the Old Lady
Dürrenmatt's play is and remains timeless. Impoverished small towns await the blessing of millions, revenge for past injustices, vigilantism – themes that could have been taken from a current newspaper or news feed. When the play premiered in 1956, it launched Dürrenmatt's worldwide fame.
