overview:
For our next ‘book club’ discussion we will be discussing the play ‘Ironbound’ by Martyna Majok.
“The play ‘Ironbound’ is about a Polish immigrant woman- Darya. She has come to America with her husband Maks, when they are both still young, in their early 20’s. They come seeking the American dream, a better life, a home, stability, a comfortable living. What they get is hardship, strain on their relationship, and broken dreams. ‘Ironbound’ is an amazingly good script, and deceptively challenging. With immigration issues roiling our culture, with women continuing to fight for equity and agency, with the struggles of just getting by in life not seeming to get any easier, this seems to be an excellent vehicle for a Frank Theater production.” Mary Aalgaard
At our book club meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 13th at Noon, we will have a pre-viewing discussion about this play. You do not need to have read, seen or know anything about the play to attend this discussion.
