The Pillowman - auditions
Advertisement
This jet-black comedy opens with a writer under interrogation by a totalitarian state about the content of his twisted short stories and their startling similarities to a series of bizarre murders. Brutal and wickedly funny like the Grimm fairytales your parents never read you, The Pillowman is wildly engaging theatre. From the writer of In Bruges, The Banshees of Inisherin, and the recent Wild Horse Nine, this unforgettable piece shines a light on the immense power of stories, the absurdity of totalitarianism, and lengths to which we go for family.
