THE PILLOWMAN

Set in a totalitarian state, Katurian, a writer of macabre children’s stories, is dragged into a police interrogation. A string of crimes, reminiscent of his bizarre stories, has been uncovered. With the clock ticking to his imminent execution, can Katurian convince the police that all he does is write stories?

Oscar-winning screenwriter Martin McDonagh astonishes once more in this play that takes us into a dark fairy-tale world in the best traditions of the Brothers Grimm.

"If that doesn’t sound like the lightest of watches, it is and it isn’t. This black comedy gets very very dark with some near-the-knuckle dialogue and certain language that can only be described as extremely politically incorrect. Discussing the gruesome murders of children may not sound like the kind of play that will be laugh a minute but, strangely enough, it is."
