Original Playwright - Marius Von Mayenburg

Synopsis:

Marius von Mayenburg's incendiary piece of stage poetry about incest and murder is like Fassbinder doing Ian McEwan's Cement Garden. It features a nuclear fainily disintegrating for no particularly good reason. Mum and Dad are perfectly cool, even if Dad spends too much time quoting atrocities from the daily paper and even If Mum insists on washing herself Inunodestly in front of the children - and it's the children that this play is all about. Olga is desperate to fill out her boob tube and not so much lose as destroy her virginity. Little brother Kurt, meanwhile, fmds puberty rudely reversing his desire to return to the womb. Olga's response is to fool around with Kurt and get her hands on the first available bloke, Paul. Paul Is a football-shirted youth with a motorbike who warns that he is also a decent, sensitive soul. But Kurt is a slower burning fuse and, like any good, seif-disrespecting teenager, he turns his rising hormonal rage into dangerous, customised nihilism.
