This play is the second in Gwydion Theatre’s “Season of Class” where they aim to examine the history and practice of classism in society. The Lower Depths investigates the forgotten class, the poorest of our poor citizens, and their untold human connections in a world where they have been disconnected from humanity. The play runs approximately two hours with an intermission.
Following the show, we’ll have a meet & greet with the director of the play.
