Olga's Room By Dea Loher

"The only way not to be a heroine, a martyr, a victim, is to make myself and accomplice, a collaborator"

Communist. Jew. Revolutionary. Lover. Mother. Olga's Room is a woman's searing struggle for survival as she clings to her disintegrating sense of self. Based on the real life of 1930s freedom fighter Olga Benario and her incarceration in Brazil and Germany, this gripping play was the first work by one of Germany's foremost contemporary dramatists, Dea Loher.
