Notes: | Original Playwright - Werner Schwab | |||||
Synopsis: | Outside the auditorium, a notice informs the audience that they will be filmed during the performance. Inside, handheld cameras are trained on people through the darkness once the play begins. Across the gloom, you think, they can't pick up much and the anxiety begins to subside. There is also the powerful distraction of the play within Scarlet Theatre's "reality theatre show", an adaptation of Werner Schwab's The Presidents, with a cracking translation by David Hale. Three women sit and watch television, swooning towards its horrors and its banalities in equal measure as they share their disappointments and fantasies. These two scenes - pulsating with Schwab's absurdist, cruel and deeply scatological world view, and acted with much relish for the grim material - are the production's impressive heart of darkness. - Elizabeth Mahoney, Guardian | |||||
