Yes So I Said Yes: Modern Plays

Autor David Ireland
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 noi 2021
It's harder to kill people when there's a peace process on.Ulster Loyalist Alan Black is kept awake every night by his neighbour McCorrick's dog barking. To add to his difficulties, McCorrick refuses to acknowledge that he even owns a dog, let alone one that is creating a disturbance.In a Northern Ireland he barely recognises, where politics has proved just to be the continuation of war by other means, a disconsolate Alan sets out to rid himself of the incessant noise. As he seeks help from authority figures, he finally - as a very last resort - turns to the only voice he can really trust, Eamonn Holmes.Coinciding with the 100th anniversary of the partition of Ireland and the foundation of Northern Ireland, Yes So I Said Yes is a blackly comic, ferocious, dystopian satire about what it's like to feel alone in a place where everyone else is conspiring to erase you and your history.This edition was published to coincide with the production at London's Finborough Theatre in November 2021.

Recenzii

David Ireland's provocative, surreal, intensely brutal farce finds a former loyalist paramilitary seeking mediation from Eamonn Holmes for a dispute with his neighbour ... Go prepared to be appalled and challenged...Ireland is the only British writer using theatre for extreme physical and intellectual provocation of audiences in the manner of recent American plays such as Suzan-Lori Parks' White Noise and Aleshea Harris's Is God Is.
David Ireland's provocative, blackly comic satire is the tale of a paramilitary loyalist left behind by the peace process
