Iphigenia in Splott de Gary Owen

Iphigenia in Splott: Modern Plays

Autor Gary Owen
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 sep 2022
What is gonna happen, when we can't take it anymore?

Stumbling down the street drunk at 11.30am Effie is the kind of girl you avoid making eye contact with. You think you know her, but maybe you don't know half of it.

Effie's life is a mess of drink, drugs and drama every night, and a hangover worse than death the next day - till one night gives her the chance to be something more.

Gary Owen's critically acclaimed and powerful monodrama inspired by the Greek myth opens at the Lyric after a smash-hit season at the Sherman Theatre in Wales and later the National Theatre, winning the Best New Play at the UK Theatre Awards 2015.

This edition was published to coincide with the production at the Lyric Hammersmith, London, in September 2022.

Recenzii

A furious piece; a tirade against welfare cuts piling up on the poor... Because Owen's writing about the unexpected turns that take one's life, there's no guessing where his play's going. His plot swerves like a getaway car. Just when you think you're watching one kind of play, it becomes another... Crushing.
Three key factors are responsible for making Iphigenia in Splott what I think is an extraordinary play. The first is Owen's excellent script - razor-sharp, witty and full of emotion, it's the work of a writer who has his pulse firmly on the mood of the world around him.
Tense and moving... it shakes you violently and then pummels your heart.
The most shattering, angry call for immediate revolt that you will see on stage this year... By any measure going, this is perfect theatre: intelligent, moving, and horribly, horribly relevant. Most of all, though, in those final moments, it feels like the start of a revolution.
Strength and power was one of the hallmarks of Gary Owen's writing right from the start with his early play Crazy Gary's Mobile Disco. Strength and power and great story telling are here again in his latest work...It's no wonder that the demand for tickets to see the show has resulted in an extended run.
