This is a Chair

By Caryl Churchill

A series of surreal sketches, each prefaced by a doom-laden tabloid style headline, This Is A Chair is at once modern and postmodern, tragedy and farce, about all and about nothing.

'Churchill, who constantly reinvents dramatic form, has come up with something compelling and strange: an intimate revue about the increasing surreality of modern life' Guardian

'creates a haunting impression of urban alienation, self-obsession and pre-millennial tension' Daily Telegraph

Also available in Churchill: Plays Four.
