Purge explores what happens when the paths of two women who must confront their fear of the truth in order to survive cross. Whilst on the run in an Estonian forest, Zara meets Allide who offers her safety. Revealing the impact of the Soviet occupation on Estonian people, Sofi Oksanen's play is one of love, hope and betrayal.
About Arcola Theatre
This renowned community theatre is at the heart of Hackney and Dalston's flourishing arts scene, and one of the best places in London to see new work. The Arcola Theatre building is a classic contemporary fringe venue, a converted paint manufacturing factory that offers studio spaces, a versatile auditorium and a pop up tent that hosts a variety of shows. Founded in 2000 the theatre has firmly established itself as more than an arts centre, with a diverse range of productions which aim to be socially and politically relevant. More about Arcola Theatre
