ePub Future Me (Oberon Modern Plays) by Stephen Brown in Arts-Photography

Description

1903. In the back streets of Montmartre; the Theatre du Grand Guignol opens its doors to an unsuspecting public. The plays performed; rife with madness and murder; are sold out every night. A psychiatrist obsessed with the playwrightrsquo;s gruesome dramas ingratiates his way into the company. But when he starts to unpick the authorrsquo;s mind; the boundaries between theatre and truth begin to blurhellip; Delighting in this lost theatrical form; Carl Grosersquo;s demented new play works fast and loose with convention. A black comedy; a psychological thriller and an unrepentant splatterfest; Grand Guignol is a head-spinning; genre-bending phantasmagoria guaranteed to keep you guessing (and wincing) to the very last horror showhellip;
