Notes: | Original Playwright - Marianne Goldman ; translated from the Swedish (Cancerbalkongen) by Gabriella Berggren | |||||
Synopsis: | We are in a big city hospital; cancer clinic with ambitions. The walls may be painted in soft colours to make the patients "feel better". The action takes place in one of the rooms,on a large veranda facing out from the room, and in a corridor. It all does, however, produce a sense of dreamlike stylisation rather than realism. The same goes for the time aspect. The patients come to the hospital for a few days to have their chemo therapy or radiation treatment. But the realistic time perspective is only a departing point. The story is about three very different women who have one thing in common - they all have cancer. Two of them have a poor prognosis, one of them a far better one. During their treatment they are forced to share the same space - both physically and psychologically - and deal with their lives. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Niklas Radstrom, translated by Gabriella Berggren | |||||
| Why would anyone want to see a play about two children killing a smaller child? That is a question this play asks its audience at the outset. Just why is each of us there? "Do you think it is useful to watch two children killing a third?" - though that is the expectation rather than what the play presents. One might also ask why should a Swedish dramatist want to write a play about this British incident? The subject, as you may have guessed, is the murder of two-year old James Bulger by 10-year-olds, Jon Venables and Robert Thompson, in 1993. It was a case which gained media attention the world over. Again why? Because the age of the killers makes it so exceptional? Not so, as a catalogue of recorded precedents since 1748 included in this play makes clear. But they were not put in the spotlight by contemporary international news media and was also the fact that the child's abduction took place under the public gaze in a shopping mall, watched by closed circuit television cameras. | |||||
