Description

''One of theatre's subtlest, most sophisticated minds' (The Times) Benefactors conjures the world of the suburbs observed through the lens of post-imperialism; 'dazzling This prismatic work circumscribes the disillusionment of an era' (New York Times); Balmoral dares to imagine what Britain would be like if it had gone through the Russian revolution in 1917; 'a sophisticated drollery, an educated amusement' (New Statesman); Wild Honey is a reworking of Checkov's first play (also known as show more Platonov) and is shot through with farce, feminism and eroticism.'' show less
