Synopsis
With echoes of Stoppard, Kafka, and the Brothers Grimm, The Pillowman centers on a writer in an unnamed totalitarian state who is being interrogated about the gruesome content of his short stories and their similarities to a series of child murders. The result is an urgent work of theatrical bravura and an unflinching examination of the very nature and purpose of art.
This production utilizes adult language and themes.
Reviews
Monster Box and Intrinsic Theatre presents darkly riveting "Pillowman"Patrice Nolan
Encore Michigan
|
"[...] Martin McDonagh’s The Pillowman is a brave choice for any theater, but for Director Bradley Hamilton, it is the right play to launch [...] his new Intrinsic Theatre Company."
"The Pillowman is a physically and emotionally demanding play that can only work with a company that has serious chops. This cast is up to the challenge." |
