Martin Crimp

Martin Crimp was born in 1956 and began writing for the theatre in the 1980s. Attempts on her Life, written in 1997, established his international reputation, and the plays that followed – among them, The Country, Cruel and Tender (written for director Luc Bondy), The City and In the Republic of Happiness – have been seen by audiences across the world.

Martin Crimp's razor-sharp satire about a world in which people are products, movies are money and sex sells.
A satire on yuppie moral and emotional bankruptcy and a bleak, black comedy thriller.
