Wit by Margaret Edson

[Anais]

Hello everyone,

I've seen an astonishing play tonight : Wit (by Margaret Edson, translated in French). It takes place in a hospital oncology department where a 50 years-old university professor receive treament for an incurable ovarian cancer. Even if the main theme seems heavy, the play is humoristic and shows emotional depths at the same time. I've done a quick search and found a good synopsis :

Absolutely marvelous play! I think Emma Thompson played the lead in the film version...or maybe that was on Broadway...anyway, it is a great play!
