When Edward Tulane, a vain and self-centered toy rabbit, is accidentally thrown overboard while on an ocean voyage, he is catapulted into an incredible adventure. Over several decades, Edward’s travels take him across the country, relying on the generosity of strangers from vastly different circumstances. Through this miraculous journey, Edward experiences love, loss and heartbreak, ultimately asking how we can find the courage to love again. Based on Kate DiCamillo’s beautiful novel of the same name, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane is simultaneously thrilling, moving and magical.

The Visit

By Friedrich Dürrenmatt
Translated by Maurice Valency

Directed by Sunghyun Lim

OCTOBER 29-NOVEMBER 8, 2026
B. IDEN PAYNE THEATRE 

The Visit opens on a small, dismal town as they prepare for the arrival of a mysterious millionairess – a former inhabitant whom they hope to win over as a benefactor. When she arrives, cloaked in grandeur, and offers to share her millions, the townspeople are ecstatic. That is, until they learn the condition of her generosity: the town must murder one of their own. Written by celebrated German-language dramatist Friedrich Dürrenmatt, and translated by Maurice Valency, The Visitweaves a macabre, grandiose and at times hilarious tale investigating the power of greed and desperation and the lengths one will go to seek justice.

“The Visit” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com
