Gaslight Theatre presents The Pillowman
In an interrogation room in an unnamed totalitarian dictatorship, Katurian Katurian, a writer, is being interrogated by two detectives. Next door, Katurians mentally disabled brother Michal waits. the detectives want to know why Katurian's stories feature gruesome plots about child murder and torture, and particular, why them seem to mirror a string of recent child murders in the area. This brutal phycological thriller from Martin McDonagh poses unanswerable questions: Can stories hold the power to cause atrocities? Where is the line between truth and fairy tale? Is a life of horror worth living at all?
