Caracteristici

Originally commissioned by National Theatre as part of its Connections project, DNA explores themes of self and group identity, bullying, cruelty and responsibility that resonate with all teenagers, and therefore make it a popular play to be studied and performed by youth groups and schools.

Recenzii

Tension so gripping you could almost taste it. Highly recommended. FOUR STARS
A taut, compelling thriller and a modern-day spin on Lord of the Flies, exploring group behaviour and moral equivocation.
Dennis Kelly's short, sharp shocker of a play cleverly piles on the twists... [his] sharp, reflective writing gets inside the characters' heads. FOUR STARS
Dennis Kelly's cruel teaser of a play; Anthony Banks's snappy production sets the temperature at chilling. FOUR STARS
