Another Vermeer

Bruce J. Robinson’s Another Vermeer is based on real events. This world premiere is set in both the highly charged climate of post-WWII Europe and the fascinating mind of its central character – Han van Meegeren. A Dutch artist/art dealer, the charming sociopath Han is arrested for selling a Vermeer masterpiece to Naxi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering – a crime punishable by death. Van Meegeren must prove that he has forged the Vermeer he sold to Goering during World War II or face the death penalty for treason. This winner of the coveted Barilla Kerr Play Writing Award is peppered with comedy, but this show is propelled by Han’s deadly serious battle to save his life and justify his existence.
