Beschreibung

A chilling and powerful modern Medea about motherhood and class, taking an unapologetic look at the single young mum, the one already judged before she's even opened her mouth.
This is Sam. Young, impulsive, single mum. Londoner born and bred and never ever left. Sam makes her mistakes, but who can blame her?
Tom rents the flat above, the one Sam cleans. If they can come to 'an arrangement' he won't call the Social on her. You might think Tom is a monster. You might think Sam's kids would be better off without her. Someone needs to make a decision.
Winner of the Soho Theatre Young Writer's Award, Fury premiered at Soho Theatre, London, in July 2016.
Verfügbar seit: 07.07.2016.
Drucklänge: 96 Seiten.

    The Ravens 
    A flock of ravens floats upon the air over their prey, 
    Like a looming black storm cloud of gloom, 
    In the later hours of the death of the day, 
    They fight each other for room, 
    In the melee, one is injured it falls, 
    Blood and gore fill the air, 
    The air is filled with their dire calls, 
    Little did the observers of this carnage care, 
    To them, it was merely a display of the nature of the raven, 
    Upon the hour they fled, 
    They were neither crazed nor craven, 
    They were happy and well-fed.

    Pirandello's classic play updated for the twenty-first century.
    Blurring the border between fiction and life, between the stage and the world outside, Six Characters in Search of an Author exploded onto the stage in 1921 as one of the unique achievements of twentieth-century drama.
    Updated and recontextualised in this vertiginous new version, it becomes a dark parable for a media-obsessed age and an exhilarating exploration of how we define art, ourselves and 'reality' in the twenty-first century.
    'exhilarating... stunning' - The Times
    'madly ingenious... gives a remarkable new lease of life to Pirandello's seminal play' - Independent
    'brilliantly inventive... gets to the heart of Pirandello's meaning while making the old play seem fresh to a modern audience' - Daily Telegraph

    Through its 211 interwoven poems, this double-tiered recursive crown of sonnets takes the reader on an epic journey to the heart of mankind’s would-be nemesis – herself – and back again. Does her destiny await in the unexplored depths of the cosmos, or in a toxic wasteland of her own making? Does she have the will to shape her own future, or is she a slave to her myopic wants and impulses? 
    Requiem takes the existential threats facing humanity – from the destruction of the environment to nuclear holocaust – as a lens through which to reflect on the fate of civilization, humanity and ultimately conscious life in the universe.
