An Oak Tree
Work:: An Oak Tree (S1585498565)
A father loses his daughter to a car. His response is to meet the loss with a colossal act of projection: the tree next to where she died he transforms into his girl. The man who killed the girl is a stage hypnotist. Since the accident, he's lost the ability to make a convincing suggestion. For the first time since the accident, these two men meet. They meet when the Father volunteers for the Hypnotist's act.
Production:: (T01868764515)
An intricate story of loss and suggestion performed by two people: the playwright himself and a different second actor at each performance - an actor who will have neither seen nor read a word of the play they're in until they're in it. The 10th anniversary revival of this ground-breaking and Obie Award-winning production by one of the UK's most original theatre-makers. Running time: 70mins.
