Краткое описание:
‘The four Tim Crouch plays contained in this volume make up one of the most important bodies of English-language playwriting to have emerged so far in the twenty-first century. Of course, we’re less than a dozen years into it, so the statement is still a little on the cautious side, but I can think of no other contemporary playwright who has asked such a compelling set of questions about theatrical form, narrative content, and spectatorial engagement.’ – Stephen Bottoms, University of Leeds Includes the plays The Author , England , An Oak Tree and My Arm . My Arm ‘…he is actually exploring on stage the nature of art and performance itself, taking risks in the process… At these moments, Crouch is armed and dangerous.’ – Guardian An Oak Tree ‘Pirandello for a modern audience and better. It’s philosophy in action, playful and seriously thought-provoking.’ – Independent on Sunday ENGLAND ‘…created with rigorous, poetic economy… ENGLAND belongs to that wonderful genre of thoughtful plays that could be discussed for hours without exhausting its ideas.’ – New York Times The Author ‘This is not audience participation; it is the audience at once being the theatre and interrogating it.’ – Financial Times
