Fear and Trembling
A Dramatic Adaptation
by Brennan Columbia-Walsh
Three professors attempt to understand the story of Abraham’s call to sacrifice his son on Mount Moriah.
Fear and Trembling is an original dramatic adaptation of Søren Kierkegaard’s 1843 treatise by the same name, which the father of existential philosophy prized as his most perfect work. Split between the modern academic scene and the land of Canaan, 2000 B.C., the play is a tragicomic meditation on faith and the absurd in three acts.
The play will be produced in the Dome in collaboration with the Yale Schwarzman Center. Tickets will become available soon!
