Three Plays (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Award-winning playwright Jonathan Moore has been described as a "singular voice for his generation: furious, nihilistic, poetic..." (Time Out). This anthology brings together three of his critically acclaimed plays, including: This Other Eden, Fall From Light, and Treatment.

 

The Plays

This Other Eden (Guardian Critics's Choice): A story of passion. A wife and a mother. Her son and daughter. Her husband. The London Irish. Limboland. The hunger for a sense of a real culture. The desire for freedom... A tough play about a woman's soul, told with beauty, humour and hope.

"... the play burns with passion and indignation." Daily Telegraph

Fall From Light: A young composer writes a new opera. The Director rejects it, but his lover, a young Diva, takes him to the council estate, where she and the composer grew up. There they meet Girly and his gang... A tale of art, savagery and redemption.

Treatment (Fringe First): Liam is part of a violent street gang but wants to escape. Trapped between two worlds, he has to choose between the dark allure of violence and the healing power of love.
