The Effect

Autor Lucy Prebble Editat de Jenny Stevens, Chris Megson, Matthew Nichols, Sara Freeman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 sep 2024
A Student Edition of Lucy Prebble's acclaimed 2012 play, which looks at two people on a clinical drugs trial and investigates questions around sanity, neurology, physical attraction and the possibilities of medicine.

The edition includes commentary and notes by Paulette Marty, which look at the context around depression and anti-depressant medication; as well as delving into major questions posed by the play, such as "is love real?" and "what is chemistry when applied to human beings?".

Her commentary also looks at the play in production, the implications of the playwright having written the roles for particular actors, and the opportunities that arise from the playwright encouraging future actors to "mould the text around themselves".

NOTES

Recenzii

A palpably intelligent [play] that proves ... that Prebble is one of the long line of dramatists who view medical practice with a rational scepticism.
What makes The Effect so special is that as well as being a play of ideas, it is also deeply moving, both in its depiction of the giddy wonder of love, and also in its account of the terrifying wasteland of depression itself.
