Synopsis: | Set in a bright, empty town square, 450 characters played by just 27 actors dart fleetingly across the stage, creating hundreds of miniature stories about the world we live in and the people we meet.'The trigger for the play was an afternoon several years ago. I sat on the terrace of a cafe and watched life pass by. I got into a state of real observation, perhaps this was helped along a bit by the wine. Every little thing became significant (without being symbolic). The tiniest procedures seemed significant of the world' | |||||

Synopsis: | Kaspar Hauser was a mysterious figure who was discovered in a German town square. He could speak only one sentence. Later, it emerged that he had spent his childhood in a dark room, cut off from human contact. He was taken in, taught how to speak, how to be a regular member of society. Handke re-imagines Kaspar today; an absurd man formed and deformed through his violent exposure to the language of our society - the language of adspeak, corporate phrases and sports platitudes. In this remarkably inventive play, ideas about received speech, conformism and the corruption of the individual are exploded into bizarre and fascinating vocal rhythms and stage images | |||||

Synopsis: | At the top of Offending the Audience, a group of actors take the stage and announce that there will be no play. They are not characters. The stage does not represent another place. Time passes as it does in real life. There is no illusion. The audience is asked to abandon every expectation, to be the subject of the actors' gaze the way that they are the subject of ours. So what will happen on stage? Offending the Audience combines caustic humor with deeply meaningful notions about theatre, life and death | |||||
