Recenzii

Room soars! Visually arresting and emotionally rich, Emma Donoghue's Room is boldly realised for the stage . harrowing . astonishingly moving.
Emma Donoghue's adaptation of her novel works beautifully onstage, and the songs capture heightened moments with sensitivity. A story of survival and love - something we all need to hear more of at this time.
The most striking thing about Emma Donoghue's stage version of her award-winning novel, Room, is its intense imaginative quality. Kathryn Joseph's songs, co-written with Cora Bissett, burst from the texture of the play like some heightened form of speech. The story of Room is in some ways a harrowing one, that brings many in the audience to tears. Yet it is also a tremendously beautiful, vivid and uplifting show about the power of a mother's love
Haunting and reflective music and lyrics. They emerge naturally from the narrative . Compelling viewing (even in you know the ending.) This coproduction. is a triumph
A strangely moving work about the power of imagination and the pain of adjustment to a new reality. . I found the prospect of the play intimidating. In the end, I was deeply touched by its testament to human resourcefulness

Born in Dublin in 1969, Emma Donoghue is an Irish emigrant twice over: she spent eight years in Cambridge doing a PhD in eighteenth-century literature before moving to London, Ontario, where she lives with her partner and their two children. She also migrates between genres, writing literary history, biography, stage and radio plays as well as fairy tales and short stories. She is best known for her novels, which range from the historical (Slammerkin, Life Mask, Landing, The Sealed Letter) to the contemporary (Stir-Fry, Hood, Landing). Her international bestseller Room was a New York Times Best Book of 2010 and was a finalist for the Man Booker, Commonwealth, and Orange Prizes. For more information, visit www.emmadonoghue.com.
