Notes: | Previewed at the Soho Theatre, and winner of the Quiller-Couch Prize, RE____ alternates between a late-night TV quiz show and its presenters home. Ghosts haunt both. Callers try to guess what RE____ really is; strange voices are put in strangers skins. A marriage suffocates; a soldier returns, apparently from the dead. A letter is read and re-read. Shadows resurrect Nebuchadnezzar. Caged animals are fed. | |||||
Synopsis: | RE____ began as a biography of Rev. Harold Davidson, a cuckolded veteran of the Great War who dedicated himself to saving fallen women. When his overenthusiastic ministrations lead to his own fall, he carved a new career ranting in a cage with two lions in a Skegness amusement park. The lions ate him on 28th July 1937. | |||||

A child has been lost and a poem written, and Robert wants to put a glory-hole through the fourth wall. No one quite knows what to say.
