Two Classics About Family
A NUMBER: Winner of the Evening Standard Award for Best Play
Caryl Churchill's A Number is a play that explores the issue of human cloning through the relationships between a father and his three sons. A tight two-hander taking place in a not-too-far off future, Churchill's play is a philosophical investigation into free will and the question of nature versus nurture.
'NIGHT, MOTHER: Winner of the 1983 Pulitzer Prize for Drama; Tony Award nominee for Best Play.
The play begins with Jessie calmly telling her Mama that by morning she will be dead, as she plans to commit suicide that very evening. The subsequent dialogue slowly reveals Jessie's life with Mama and the reasons for her decision, culminating in a disturbing, yet unavoidable, climax.
