The Priest’s Tale
London
NW1 4QP
Performed by award-winning British actor/playwright Michael Mears - is his adaptation of one of the atomic-bomb survivors’ accounts from John Hersey’s remarkable book HIROSHIMA.
Father Wilhelm was a German Jesuit priest living in Hiroshima, who survived the blast but witnessed much of the destruction. Told with compassion, warmth and flashes of humour, THE PRIEST’S TALE is a clear-eyed depiction of the pity of war…and of the terror wrought at the start of our nuclear age. After the 1 hour (approx.) performance there will be a Q and A.
