Produktbeschreibung

A Mother's Unconditional Love Faces the Ultimate Test in This Richly Emotional Journey

In this moving exploration of parenthood, an American mother and a Tibetan father have a three-year-old son believed to be the reincarnation of a Buddhist lama. When a Tibetan lama and a monk unexpectedly arrive at their home, asking to take their child away for a life of spiritual training in India, the parents must make a life-altering choice that will test their strength, their marriage, and their hearts.

The Oldest Boy is a richly emotional journey filled with music, dance, puppetry, ritual, and laughter-showcasing award-winning feminist playwright Sarah Ruhl at her imaginative best. A meditation on attachment and unconditional love, this captivating play about Tibetan Buddhism asks us to believe in a world where sometimes the youngest children are also the oldest and wisest teachers.
