Can you ever really go home
again?
Five years after fleeing the
war in Sarajevo and escaping to Canada, Tarik Nakas returns to Bosnia—with
his new Canadian wife—to face the family he left behind. With his
sudden reappearance, those he left must now reconcile their love for
Tarik with their anger at his betrayal. RETURN (The Sarajevo Project)
is a unique international co-creation developed by an ensemble of Canadian
and Bosnian theatre artists. The production was created over three years
of workshops in two countries, and was presented at the Sarajevo International
Winter Festival and Toronto’s Tarragon Theatre.
