Caryl Churchill

Hotel (NHB Modern Plays) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

An innovative theatre piece combining music, voices and dance, with a text by Caryl Churchill and music by Orlando Gough.

Hotel is in two parts:

In the first, Eight Rooms, fourteen people - tourists, couples and business people - spend an ordinary night in a hotel. But they all occupy the same space, their stories overlapping and interweaving and creating an exhilarating collage of words, voices, music and choreographed movement.

In the second, a dance piece entitled Two Nights, we see two distinct nights happening at the same time. Two people find different ways to disappear, while a diary found in another hotel room tells of one more extraordinary disappearance.

'Elusive, poetic, striking and substantial' - The Times

'Their pieces have the power to make you leave the theatre in an altered state' - Observer
