The Architect by David Greig

"The most important playwright to have emerged north of the border in years." (Scotsman) The Architect charts the rise and fall of Leo Black, once an idealistic and idolised designer, whose magnificent visions are now crumbling, along with his family, in the light of grubby reality. "Provides convincing evidence of David Greig's confident transition from a dramatist of promise to one of stature." (Indpendent)
David Greig's plays include A Savage Reminiscence and And the Opera House Remained Unbuilt (Edinburgh Festival), Petra's Explanation (Traverse, Edinburgh), Stalinland (Edinburgh Festival - Fringe First, and Glasgow Citizens') and The Cosmonaut's Last Message to the Woman He Once Loved in the Former Soviet Union (Paines Plough, Lyric Hammersmith, Tron Glasgow and tour).
