The SF Bayview called The Stone Trilogy a "riveting emotional journey" of love, forgiveness, and oppression. Kaleidoscopic and darkly humorous, The Stone Trilogy presents related one-acts set in three countries: Ireland, South Africa, and the United States. They can be seen individually or as one incredible evening of theatre. Come and go as you like in this truly unique Fringe experience. In Erin's Hope, a dark stranger approaches the True IRA with an offer to media "spin" their cause to the American public. The risks pit father against daughter, brother against brother, and young love against the forces of history. Set after the fall of Apartheid, a young black South African and a white female archeologist discover a cave filled with ancient African paintings in The History of Stone, the second play and winner of this year's Best Play in the SF Bay One-Acts Festival. The appearance of a white South African at their site creates an explosive atmosphere reminiscent of Sartre's No Exit. And finally, An Accident of Identity examines the accessibility of medicine in the United States, and the subtle dynamics of economics, race, and sexual orientation. Written by Ian Walker, winner of the John Golden Prize and the Larry Corse International Award. Catch one, two, or all three of these "thought-provoking and ambitious" (SF Bay Guardian) comedy-dramas by one of the Bay Area's sharpest talents.
