{"product_id":"9781854595409","title":"Caryl Churchill Plays: Four by Caryl Churchill","description":"The fourth volume of the collected plays of one of the best playwrights alive.   Written over a period of ten years and evincing an extraordinary range of topics and techniques, this fourth volume of Caryl Churchill's collected plays confirms her standing as a playwright who is 'amongst the best half-dozen now writing' (The Times).   This volume includes:Hotel (Schauspielhaus, Hannover, 1997), an innovative theatre piece combining music, voices and dance, with a text by Caryl Churchill and music by Orlando Gough.   This is a Chair (Royal Court Theatre, 1997), a short play about the surreal nature of modern life.   Blue Heart (Out of Joint \u0026amp; Royal Court Theatre, 1997), two linked one-act plays, both startlingly innovative, exploring the underpinnings of family relationships.   Far Away (Royal Court, 2000), a brilliantly unsettling play about conflict and its unsettling effect on our lives and humanity.   A Number (Royal Court, 2002), a fascinating meditation on human cloning, personal identity and the conflicting claims of nature and nurture.   Drunk Enough to Say I Love You? (Royal Court, 2006),examining US foreign policy and international power politics through the lens of an intense personal relationship.   A Dream Play?(National Theatre, London, 2005), a spare and resonant version of August Strindberg's 1901 masterpiece.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56308550762869,"sku":"9781854595409","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781854595409.jpg?v=1762808009","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781854595409","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
