BATTLEFIELD at ACT Theatre

Thirty years after Peter Brook's legendary production of the Indian epic Mahabharata took the theater world by storm comes its breathtaking next chapter, Battlefield. The devastation of war is tearing the Bharata family apart, and the new king must unravel a mystery: How can he live with himself in the face of the devastation and massacres that he himself has caused? Hailed as a "dazzling piece of theatre" by The Guardian, Battlefield raises vital questions that are at once timeless and devastatingly current. See this vital new work, directed by multiple Tony Award-winning director Peter Brook and Marie-Hélène Estienne, at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco.
