The Hills of California
Despre carte
The latest work from acclaimed playwright Jez Butterworth, The Hills of California is a generational drama that rifles through decades of one family's past. Blackpool, 1976. The driest summer in two hundred years.
The beaches are packed. The hotels are heaving. In the sweltering backstreets, far from the choc ices and donkey rides, the Webb Sisters are returning to their mother's run-down guest house, as she lies dying upstairs.
A new Jez Butterworth play is very much An Event-time to get excited. -Time Out London Magnificent, moving and quietly furious...a rich, funny, brilliantly layered drama about lost dreams, trampled hopes, parenting and letting go. -Financial Times A remarkable play...unfurls with the richness and depth of a well-crafted novel...Butterworth remains a one-off, a man who can write plays about ordinary people that carry the charge of the great tragedies. -Time Out London Exquisite...Devastatingly moving, bitterly funny, tender, cruel and wise. -The Stage 'Bittersweet and bitingly funny...Butterworth's poetic verbosity is in full evidence, along with savage humour, painful pathos and simmering rage...thought-provoking, heartbreaking and multi-layered.-Broadway World Beautifully well-written...Filled with believable, colourful characters...expertly engineered...a rich text, full of nuance and glorious dialogue. -Express Intelligent, witty and studded with good lines, fine performances, resonances, echoes and a lingering sense of loss. -Sunday Times Epic and ambitious...The writing is closely observed, humorous, but with ripples of anger beneath the surface. -WhatsOnStage
