This is the story of an ill-fated romance between a young Greek village girl and a conflicted Turkish officer during the dawn of the Greek War of Independence against the Ottoman Empire in 1821. The drama blends ageless themes of hope, love and sacrifice with a timely narrative about one woman’s struggle to overcome oppression and shape her own destiny. Cast includes Patti LuPone and the late, great Christopher Plummer.
Cliffs of Freedom is made available courtesy of the National Hellenic Society.
