Description
A play about love, death, identity and evolution, Abandonment is a thought-provoking drama from Kate Atkinson. Elizabeth, a woman in her 40s, has retreated to a converted Victorian mansion, seeking solitude after a recent separation. However, she soon finds herself surrounded by the people and forces that disrupt her desire for isolation. As Elizabeth navigates this new environment, she is confronted with the past and the presence of others who refuse to leave her alone. A former inhabitant of the house, disturbed from her resting place, revisits her own long-forgotten history, adding to the complexity of Elizabeth's situation. First performed at the Traverse Theatre in Edinburgh in 2000, Abandonment is a powerful exploration of human relationships and the search for identity.
