Aunt Dan and Lemon

By Wallace Shawn

1986

Aunt Dan and Lemon by Wallace Shawn.
Lemon (alias Leonora) spends her nights reading chronicles of Nazi atrocities. She tells the audience about the impact that a family friend, “Aunt Dan”, an eccentric, passionate professor has had on her from a young age. Their relationship and the conversations they have are the foundation of this play about politics and our attraction to certain ideas-even if they lead to murder.
