Autor Chris Thorpe, Rachel Chavkin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 iul 2014
Winner of a Scotsman Fringe First Award 2014

If you pinned me against a wall and put a gun to my head, I'd probably admit to being a liberal. Actually if you pinned me against a wall and put a gun to my head,I'd probably admit to being whatever you wanted me to be. And of course, putting a gun to my head is exactly what I'd expect from someone likeyou.

Confirmation is a show about the gulf between beliefs that we can't talk across.About our knee-jerk dismissal of the opposing viewpoint. About the echo chamberof agreement and validation we live in. About the way we choose only to see theevidence that proves we're right.

A new solo show from a multi Fringe First winning team: written and performed by Chris Thorpe (Unlimited Theatre, Third Angel), developed with and directed by Rachel Chavkin (The TEAM).

Recenzii

Thorpe and director Rachel Chavkin energetically take a liberal Fringe audience to the edge of the abyss of belief and hang them over the side in a conversation for our times
Amid so much theatre that simply confirms its audience's liberal sympathies, Confirmation is that rare and valuable thing: a piece that makes you alert to your own selective use of evidence - Thorpe challenges himself and us to be aware of our own bias and retain our passion and certainty
This] show is a sly, slippery thing, tickling at the mind for long after - The real brilliance lies in the show's delicate plaiting of concept and form, theatrically grappling with its ideas at every level.
Thorpe has created a fiercely intelligent and relentlessly curious piece that strives for he truth, even as it acts as a warning to the easily led.
