Product Description
Review
'This extraordinary play lasts only 75 minutes, but watching this brilliant production you feel you have been to hell and back. Plasticine offers a nightmarish trip to the lower depths of contemporary Russia... A play you are not likely to forget in a hurry' Daily Telegraph 'This is a play from hell, a play of pity and terror... It begins with a funeral and ends with a murder; in between lies a world of violence, cruelty, greed and predatory sexuality' Sunday Times 'Vividly communicates an alarming sense of contemporary urban Russia on the verge of anarchy and breakdown' Evening Standard
Product Description
The Evening Standard Most Promising Playwright - 24-year-old Sigarev from Western Siberia - follows up his 'extraordinary' debut with this world premiere at the Royal Court Plasticine made a tremendous impact when it burst onto the stage of the Royal Court in Spring 2002 - and won its author the Evening Standard Award for Most Promising Playwright of the Year. His new play, Black Milk, offers another worm's eye view of post-Communist Russia as seen from the bottom of the heap. The setting is a remote railway station in a remote part of the 'Boundless Motherland'. Stranded there are a young spiv, selling overpriced toasters to the local peasantry, and his heavily pregnant wife. They don't like the place, they don't like the people, and they don't much like each other...
