Produktinformationen zu „Visiting Edna and Good for Otto (ePub)“
Two plays exploring the struggle of mental illness by the Tony Award-winning "giant of American theater" and author of Hurlyburly (Chicago Tribune).
Good for Otto, which premiered in October 2015 at the Gift Theatre in Chicago, is a "sprawling drama of mental illness" in which "Mr. Rabe digs into his subject with a depth that almost feels bottomless." Drawing on material from Undoing Depression by psychotherapist Richard O'Connor, it explores the lives of a therapist and his many patients, all trying to navigate personal trauma (Charles Isherwood, The New York Times).
Visiting Edna, which premiered in September 2016 at the Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago, is a drama of "deeply searing power" about the bond between mother and son. As Edna faces a short future plagued by her many illnesses-and a cancer that looms so large it becomes another character-she and her adult son struggle to communicate about their shared past as they contemplate the future (Variety).
Taken together, the plays offer a satisfying glimpse into "Rabe's theatrical universe . . . at once vivid and mysterious, a pageant and a puzzle" of contemporary American life (John Lahr, The New Yorker).
"Many would list [Rabe] among the very greatest of living playwrights." -Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
