LOVE AND INFORMATION by Caryl Churchill
Someone has a secret.
A scientist dissects a brain.
Someone loves a virtual woman.
A child doesn’t know fear.
Someone is tortured.
Another has a dream.
Exploring our need for connection in a world affected by the speed of information, twenty actors perform a hundred vibrant characters searching for meaning, in a myriad of fractured encounters.
“Churchill suggests, with compassionate urgency, that our insatiable appetite for knowledge needs to be informed by our capacity for love.” Michael Billington | Theatre critic | The Guardian
A myriad of short scenes, a comedy of communication, a drama of depression, a modern manual of sex, memory, and schizophrenia. I’m not quite sure how it happens, but every time Caryl Churchill writes a play, she breaks the mould. Michael Coveney | Theatre critic | Whatsonstage.com
