Central Works opened The Last Goat on June 28, continuing its 35th season. The play, set on the isolated Greek island of Kasos, revolves around a young woman and her grandmother whose lives are metaphorically interrelated. The arrival of a shipwreck survivor introduces themes of mistrust. The performance takes place in a small theater within the Berkeley City Club building, enhancing the intimate experience of live theater in contrast to the online world. The play reflects social, political, and cultural movements, emphasizing the importance of the arts through its young cast member, Liris Robles.
"The Last Goat is an archipelago representing a series of interrelated islands in a theatrical ocean, highlighting isolation and connection among its characters on the Greek island of Kasos."
"The performance space is like a tiny sandbar, so small within the grand architecture of the Berkeley City Club that it could easily be overlooked, yet creates a dramatic ambience for live theater."
