Synopsis: | A paranoid, nearly blind old woman interviews a young girl who answers her ad for a servant. During the process, the old woman's fear of the outside world shows Itself bit by bit, partly through the slightly-veiled hostility of her questions, partly through her revelations about herself. When the girl realises just how far gone her potential employer Is, she decides she doesn't want the job after all; but the old woman, terrified because the girl - who now knows all about her - poses a threat to her safety, shoots her. The author draws from this confrontation a gripping tension, and the old woman is a remarkable creation, as blind and dangerous to herself as she is, symbolically, to the outside world." - Village Voice. 'Easily one of the most exciting plays to reach the Off Off Broadway circuit." - Backstage. | |||||

Notes: | - | |||||
Synopsis: | With this play the author tries to prove that our outer actions are not related to our interior motives. A young couple with their infant son go on an outing in a forest. The two of them go through experiences that reveal their individual repressed sexual desires, hatred, murderous instincts, greed and dishonesty. At the surprising ending of the play the characters are shattered inwardly, but their outside behaviour remains the same, and in a normal fashion, they pick up their belongings and leave. | |||||
