A KINGDOM FOR A TREE
In A Kingdom for a Tree, inspired by William Shakespeare and Samuel Beckett, a woman in black wanders through barren landscapes. Man has subdued the earth, exploited nature and ultimately defeated it. It is the world after: she is the sole survivor, no forests, animals or plants to be seen. Thrown back on herself, her memories and dreams, she stages absurd scenes that defy logic. It’s all for nothing because everything seems futile — so everything is possible. What can be done? Is there a future? How to take a stand when all seems lost? (More).
