Martin Crimp

Not One Of These People (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

If you think you know what it's like to be me you are seriously deluded.

Is it appropriation to invent a voice - or is it an act of empathy?

If a playwright's job is to make dialogue, is there a limit to how many characters she / he / they are entitled to invent? Who can these people be? And what if an invented voice says things that even the author would prefer not to hear?

With characteristically provocative humour, Martin Crimp's latest work brings 299 unique characters to the stage.

Not One of These People, a co-production between the Royal Court Theatre, Carte blanche, and the Carrefour international de théâtre, premiered at Théâtre La Bordée, Québec City, in June 2022, and at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in November 2022.
