Autor DC Moore
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 noi 2014
It's forty million miles. Two and a half years, yeah? It takes a radiowave - right? Travelling at the speed of fucking light, 13 minutes, to get back from Mars. So . . . if anything goes wrong - anything at all - out there . . . they're really . . . they're on their own, you know?When Earth is the loneliest planet, where else is there to go?Paul is a specialist in cognitive behaviour, tasked with designing a twenty-year mission to Mars. Daniel is a husband and new father struggling with the reality of marriage and the monotony of everyday life. Nat is a twin sister, disillusioned by the world's obsession with space travel and sorry that she didn't say goodbye. And Amy asks a lot of questions . . . Following his critically acclaimed The Empire at the Royal Court, and The Swan at the National Theatre, DC Moore's Another Place is a compelling play about our obsession to uncover the secrets of space, and the tragedy of what we leave behind. Full of dark humour, razor-sharp wit and intricately portrayed characters, this is a gripping play about what it means to be human.Another Place received its world premiere at the Theatre Royal Plymouth on 6 November 2014.

Recenzii

Moore really gets inside what it feels like to have made a mess of your life before it's even under way.
DC Moore's debut is a searing and uncomfortable probing of prejudice in all its forms.
DC Moore is a very special talent and the perfect writer to give voice to a generation of young people for whom the first step on the career path is to realise that there no longer is one.
Moore pulls it all off via some brilliantly raucous comic writing. From the bewildered squaddies of The Empire to the nihilistic office worker in Honest up-and-comer Moore has a killer eye for the neuroses of the British everybloke, which he lovingly amplifies, exaggerates and dissects
It casts its coolly intelligent gaze towards the future of our planet and out into deep space, while posing fundamental questions about human existence . . . the writing is engrossing and spikily stylish . . . the play reverberates around the mind long afterwards.
