Road: Acting Edition S.

Autor Jim Cartwright
en Limba Engleză Paperback – feb 1989
Under the guidance of the rum-soaked wideboy Scullery, we are taken on an evening's tour of a scruffy, depressed road in a small Lancashire town. Moving from street corner to living room, from bedroom to kitchen, we meet the inhabitants of young, middle-aged, and old, glimpsing their socially and emotionally wretched lives, in this sharp, sad, funny, and angry play.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
"Why's the world so tough? It's like walking through meat in high heels."

A road, a wild night; a drunken guide, Scullery, conducts a tour of the derelict Lancashire road on which he lives. In this seminal play that gives expression to the road's poverty-stricken inhabitants, we are taken on a journey from the gutter to the stars and back.

This is published to coincide with the revival of Jim Cartwright's 1986 game-changing play to the Royal Court, London in June 2017.

Recenzii

Uncomfortable and magical, funny and bitter. It is a northern Under Milk Wood, high on pills and booze
Road is indeed an original, affecting, rumbustious and truly remarkable piece of work
The writing [is] so immediate and entertaining too. As a first piece of work [it] is absolutely seminal.
...Jim Cartwright's 1986 account of a community scarred by unemployment that couldn't be more relevant or rousing...****
Road is a hard, occasionally transcendent evening and also a gauntlet to modern playwrights...****
...Cartwright's vivid language, with its ugly-beautiful poetry, its rage and compassion, still grabs you by the heart and throat and squeezes, hard. ****
...its message comes at us with a vengeance.
