A spade. A cup and saucer. A medal. A pair of shoes. A rattle. A camera. A ring. A painting. A pair of spectacles. An urn. A postcard. A bucket. A drum. 13 objects. Everyday. Dull. Mundane. But what if one was capable of inspiring tears? Or a great passion? Even a war. The play explores the intimate connection we often make with everyday objects. Although familiar and mundane in themselves, they can resonate with intense memories or extreme feelings. Here a series of simple items inspire a moment of great sorrow, joy, pain, anger, even a substitute for the identity of a human being. Powerful poetic language, provocative ideas and rich, dark humour build a compelling and fascinating exploration of the secret lives of everyday objects.

A young man rushes to reach the bedside of his dying father, but arrives too late. His younger brother was present at the death, but his attitude is strangely ambiguous, and the elder brother becomes suspicious. The intentions of the dead man's mistress are also unclear. The mourners become increasingly consumed by feverish imagining, building a powerfully tense atmosphere as their characters start to disintegrate.

Tense, dark and witty, this concise 80 minute new work is a gripping tale of an encounter between the diabolical and the innocent in a bold and beautiful exploration of a world overturned. A mysterious visitor to a barber's shop announces he has news to tell. But first he invites the barber to imagines the worst imaginable catastrophe he can. He envisages a national catastrophe in which his own son is a victim. This approaching disaster will destroy his life but also that of the diabolical visitor, so at the end they share a dreadful intimacy. In the wash of savagery that the world experiences every day, how can we contain any sense of individual suffering? In this play, the barber gains an agonising knowledge of the cataclysm to come, while his friends and neighbours know nothing. The play explores what this does to him and the choices he must make.

A testament to the millienium, Howard Barker's Ecstatic Bible sweeps through a landscape shaped by the European political and social experience of the twentieth century. A series of interlocking narratives negotiate a strange landscape - streets, a chateau, a hospital ward of war wounded - inhabited by amoral and passionate characters. Provocative imagery and poetic language are suffused with a rich, dark humour. This intriguing collection of parables without morality carries within it the profound echoes of past pain and comic contradiction.

Barker's The Europeans leads us through a cross-section of war-ravaged Vienna, post-Turkish invasion of the late 1600's. This is a place where manners disappear with shops, the most genteel women will sell their bodies for a loaf of bread, and the blood of Turkish prisoners runs free. The Emporer and Empress want the normality of the past, but only Starhemburg, the army general and saviour of the city, realises that a new future must be forged, and sees Katrin - a young woman mutilated, raped and impregnated by the Turks - as being the agent for change. No Barker play is more relevant now than The Europeans. It unapologetically reveals us as we are: primal beasts dangerously struggling to learn the love of oneself and finding the spirit to love one another.

inspired by the long distance fence under construction in the Gaza to separate the Palestinian and Jewish communities. Set in a world of rising frontiers and illegal immigration, The Fence uses powerful poetic language, provocative ideas and rich, dark humour to build a compelling epic about scandal in a ruling monarchy and its subsequent downfall. At the heart of this tale is the intensely personal story of a blind boy's struggle to discover his true identity in a world where nothing is what it seems

Urinating nurses, mechanical dogs, headless women, burning books and Adolf Hitler are all part of the bold visceral landscape of Howard Barker's startling new play. A startling and provocative kaleidoscope of images, movement and powerfully poetic language, Found In The Ground is his most unique stage work yet; an exhilarating challenge to both language and what we think of as a play but threaded with a cruel black comedy and a host of characters whose human weaknesses, dreams and desires we all too readily recognise. A dying former Nuremberg judge consigns his priceless library to the bonfire. As he rejoices in this willful barbarism, his delinquent daughter discovers a bizarre obsession and his executed victims appear. His desire to meet the arch criminal who evaded his prosecution is at last satisfied when Hitler arrives to discuss painting.

Barker's abiding interest in interrogating the great classics for their 'silences' is shown in Gertrude - The Cry, his re-writing of the Hamlet story. Scarcely examined in Shakespeare, the passion of Gertrude for Claudius is made the centre of this harrowing tragedy, casting new light on the personality of Hamlet himself.

New End Theatre, Hampstead, London (rehearsed reading), 2007 >>> . Howard Barker's theatre company The Wrestling School was one of the companies cut by Arts Council England in its recent round of funding decisions but has been saved by an American fan who has pledged to replace that funding for the next three years. Now the company is to premiere its twentieth anniversary production, Barker's I Saw Myself.
- The British Theatre Guide

Sleev, a rich and promiscuous woman wants to confess her scandalous sexual history to a world that has never dared acknowledge it. . .The men are at war. The women weave a great tapestry portraying the conflict. The death of Sleev's husband in battle compels her to insinuate her sexual adventures into the tapestry, provoking fear and hostility in all those around her. In her struggle to assert the right to depict her personal experience Howard Barker has created another gloriously self-willed, erotic and fascinating character, returning to the theme of the subversion of public art by individual expression he first explored in Scenes From An Execution. The piece explores the role of the mirror, the autobiography and the self-portrait in an intriguing and unpredictable way.

No End of Blame: Scenes of Overcoming explores the role of the artist in society and the struggle for freedom of expression. Starting with a harrowing depiction of war with an attempted rape and a near execution in the Carpathian Mountains during WWI, the protagonist is the brilliant Hungarian political cartoonist Bela Veracek (loosely based on German cartoonist Victor Weisz). Running from Hungary at the end of the First World War to the newly emergent Soviet Union and then to a pre-WWII Britain, he's constantly at odds with the governments he lampoons and the newspapers that admire his talent but expect conformity and absolute submission

sub title: by the Boy Priest Loftus in the Abbey of Calcetto, 1539

Set at the time of the Dissolution of the Monasteries during the English Reformation, the play describes the spiritual ascendancy of an adolescent priest and the appalling discovery that he possesses the power of life and death over others, both religous and secular. Victimised by his bretheren and eventually murdered by his female followers, the youth Loftus argues hiself into the belief that god, weary of his own impotence, has devoted His powers upon him

A tense and compelling dramatic enquiry into the terms of life and death, A Wounded Knife brings together strong characters and shockingly unsentimental humour in a vivid story of sexual fixation and remorselessness. In this highly intriguing and engaging example of Barker’s distinctive drama, an unrepentant murderer is given a new lease of life by an unpredictable prince, who is driven to test the limits of others and himself, including a seductive widow, a revenge-driven tailor and a lethal surgeon. A Wounded Knife explores the dangers of love and questions of justice, in scenes rich with the tangles of eroticism and speculation, which prove both comic and terrifying.
