In this short piece by Norwegian playwright Fredrik Brattberg, a couple struggles to move on after their son’s disappearance changes their lives forever. Then one day, a knock at the door changes their lives again. And again. And….. again. The Returns toes the lines between tragedy, dark comedy, absurdity, and drama as the family struggles to rebuild their lives and leave the past behind.The original Norwegian “Tilbakekomstene” by Fredrik Brattberg was translated into English by Chicago’s Chad Eric Bergman for this production.
The Returns is directed by Breahan Eve Pautsch, former co-artistic director of Akvavit Theatre, a Chicago company that was dedicated to contemporary Nordic works. Pautsch is a current member of Rotate Theater in Madison.
