Performance of “The Elevator Key” on Wednesday, December 11, 2024 at 8 p.m. at the Gries Community Theater.

A cry of hope against the imprisonment and abuse of women
“The Elevator Key,” loosely based on the text by Agota Kristoff.
The story tells the vicissitudes of a young woman segregated in a room, accessible only by an elevator whose key has been taken away from her by her husband. In a delirium of “love,” the man justifies his ruthless actions with a desire to protect her from the outside world

This is followed by the story of Franca Viola, who brought about the change in Italian laws.
