Leap Productions and Ros Terry present
Faith, Hope And Charity
by Ödön von Horváth
Translated by Christopher Hampton.
22 JUNE - 16 JULY 2011

Elisabeth is a fighter: an optimistic saleswoman in pre-war Europe. When she is fined for selling corsets without a valid permit, her debts mount. Drowning in bureaucracy, Elisabeth attempts to sell her last asset- her corpse. Meeting a charitable person, the offer of stability and love rebuilds Elisabeth’s faith. But the unstoppable machinery of the state advances…
Banned by the Nazi regime in 1933, Faith, Hope and Charity is a powerful and critical portrait of a population driven to desperate and absurd ends, which asks enduring questions about society, civil rights and the welfare state.
Masterfully translated by Oscar-winning writer Christopher Hampton (Atonement, The Seagull, Tales from Hollywood) this UK revival of Horváth’s darkly comic play, is directed by rising German director Leonie Kubigsteltig (resident director on the West End production of The Children’s Hour).
