Bones in the Desert
The Spiel
An urgent new play about memory, belonging and the shadows of war. Two lives. One past. A hundred years apart. A story that refuses to stay buried. Berlin, 2022. Artur, a 19-year-old refugee, is stuck in a city that doesn’t feel like home - caught between worlds, between roles and haunted by the ghosts of his escape from the Syrian civil war.
