Barker: Plays Four by Howard Barker
Howard Barker is one of the most controversial British dramatists of his time. His plays unsettle, challenge, and expose. The contradictions of the humanist personality are explored in the following four plays: I Saw Myself; The Dying of Today; Found in the Ground; and The Road, the House, the Road.
Howard Barker is an internationally renowned dramatist, whose first plays were performed at the Royal Court and by the Royal Shakespeare Company. Since 1992 his work has been presented by his own company The Wrestling School. Barker’s theatre is characterized by its poetic, non-naturalistic form and inhabits worlds of contradiction, suffering and sexual passion. Barker is also a poet and theorist of theatre, whose ‘Theatre of Catastrophe’ defines a new form of tragedy for our times.
