Saw the Young Vic production, the kind of play that fizzes with ideas bringing in concepts of linguistics, mental health, race and typical office politics. Frequently hilarious, sometimes shocking - the tone shifts beautifully throughout. Also, David Haig is a national treasure. ( ) I read this book and then heard the author speak at the Southbank. It was a good play. He irritated me, because while explaining why he wrote the book, he seemed to assume that someone else had to speak for those with mental illness to describe their situation, because they are disabled. What about Virginia Woolfe, for God's sake? nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Premi e riconoscimenti
In a London psychiatric hospital, an enigmatic patient claims to be the son of an African dictator - a story that becomes unnervingly plausible. An incendiary tale of race, madness and a Darwinian power struggle at the heart of a dying National Health Service, Blue/Orange premiered at London's Cottesloe Theatre in April 2000 and transferred to the West End in 2001. "Joe Penhall creates as riveting and compelling a new chamber play as we have seen since Michael Frayn's Copenhagen" - Daily Mail "Britain's best new play since Michael Frayn's Copenhagen...thrillingly original" - Financial Times "Funny and irreverent...Penhall's writing is vibrant throughout" - Independent on Sunday "I came out of Joe Penhall's new play in a state of hot, black excitement: emotional, intellectual, moral excitement. How many plays can claim that much?" - Sunday Times "Exuberant...Penhall has the gift of making serious points in a comic manner and of conveying moral indignation without preaching...Stinging satire" - Guardian "Provocative, blackly funny...[and] taut with thought-provoking ambiguity" - Independent Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
