Creating poetry and lyricism out of brutality, and humor and optimism out of tragedy, Lynn Nottage's Pulitzer Prize-winning drama transports you to the brutally war-torn Congo and a brothel run by the shrewd and savvy matriarch Mama Nadi. In this war, women's ravaged bodies have become the battleground for soldiers and rebels alike. Based on interviews conducted by Lynn Nottage (By the Way, Meet Vera Stark), Ruined is an unflinching look into the real stories of the brave women who fought to survive the horrors of war.
