Sonja
Tatiana Tolstaja / Alvis Hermanis

Sonja is a little dense, a little ugly, a little lonely. But she does have some talents: she is an excellent cook and seamstress, and is great at getting on people’s nerves. Then one day she receives a love letter, passionate and serious, and Sonja’s heart is aflame. Little does she realize that the letter was written by the evil Ada, who changes Sonja’s life for ever.
Following The Ice, Latvian director Alvis Hermanis continues his collaboration with schauspielfrankfurt.
Once again he takes a Russian prose text and translates Tatjana Tolstaya's famous novel into his incomparable theatrical language.
