Skylight

David Hare Price: $16.95

“The play of the decade” ~ Spectator

“A magnificent chamber play by one of the few major playwrights in our language. Quite unlike his “social” trilogy [Racing Demon, Murmuring Judges, The Absence of War], Hare is here dealing with gentler matters of life, love and circumstance…Skylight might well one day take its place among the small, residual handful of fin de siecle classics” ~ New York Post

“There are times in the theatre when you suddenly find yourself in the grip of silence. There is no fidgeting or coughing no shifting about in seats: the audience’s attention is so tense, it is almost palpable. This is because it can sense that what is happening on the stage is both thrilling and dangerous: a fight to the death, or the dawning of salvation. David Hare’s new play, Skylight, is punctuated by such moments. They are the signs that a dramatist of the first rank is writing at full stretch, in complete command of his material, undogmatic and unafraid, unforgiving but compassionate” ~ Sunday Times
