Description
Crave is a dramatic poem that charts the disintegration of a human mind under the pressures of love, loss and desire. Set in an unnamed city, the play is shot through with the language of the Bible and features a poetic richness.
Produced by Paines Plough and Bright Ltd, Crave premiered at the Traverse Theatre for the 1998 Edinburgh Festival and received its English premiere at the Royal Court Theatre in September 1998. The play is often described as a late-Beckett style work, with a unique blend of language and imagery.
This unsettling theatrical experience explores the complexities of the human condition, making it a thought-provoking and unnerving read.
