Theater in English:
Innocence, like stories, comes to an end. Four Stories, inspired by the short stories of J.D Salinger is a drama devised by Kameleon Theatre BCN, that invites you to witness the private lives of some of New England's elite in the year 1948 and deals with loss of innocence and the inability to understand life after WWII. Often surprising, and always thought-provoking, Four Stories explores the emotional repercussions of war, reminding us that when innocence is lost, it is lost forever. Directed by Sophie Heydel and Designed by Celia Smith.
