Godber Plays: 4: Our House; Crown Prince; Sold; Christmas Crackers: Contemporary Dramatists

Autor John Godber
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 mar 2009
Godber Plays: 4 brings together four recent plays by one of Britain's most prolific, popular playwrights. The author is the artistic director of Hull Truck Theatre and the publication is timed to coincide with the opening of Hull Truck's new theatre building in the heart of Hull.In Our House May, a widow, mother and grandmother, is packing up her home of 45 years and heads for a life in the sun. However, trading neighbourhood hell for the Costa del Calm is no easy task as memories are harder to let go than possessions. First produced in 2007, the play was revived and toured the UK in 2008.In Crown Prince (2007) Godber finds comedy in a bowls club, and against the backdrop of the advancing years of its members, issues of redundancy, bereavement and guilt emerge.Sold is the author's most politically charged play to date, exposing the misery of people-trafficking and women sold into the sex-trade in Britain.Christmas Crackers follows overworked A&E nurses Holly and Kath on a shopping and booze trip to Prague where things take an unexpected turn.'John Godber's work is unique; he is able to speak to a very broadaudience in a way that is thought-provoking, exciting and always veryfunny.' Hilary Strong, Executive Director of Greenwich Theatre
