Produktinformationen zu „Poison (NHB Modern Plays) (ePub)“

An extraordinary play that asks a simple question: is it ever possible to move on?

Poison by Dutch writer Lot Vekemans had a critically acclaimed run in New York in 2016, and was premiered in the UK at the Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond, in November 2017, directed by Paul Miller.

'An absorbing dance around the truth, in which tenderness and starkness alternate and the awkward cadences of debate are chasteningly authentic... considers the effects of grief, but instead of making pain appear poetic it portrays with sober precision the essential ordinariness of its two characters' - Evening Standard

'Painful, powerful... a minutely realistic look at the oddly colourless nature of grieving, and the grim concrete structures that 21st-century secular society builds around it' - Time Out

'Quietly unflinching... an almost forensic exploration of the hard, sharp edges of grief and loss... [has a] bruising truthfulness' - The Stage

'searing... a tear-jerker' - New York Times

'truly astounding' - Broadway World
