Martin Crimp
Clair wants to be kissed - but not now - and certainly not by her husband. Jenny arrives to complain about the screaming children - but the garden's empty, and the key to the playroom's disappeared. Just what strange game is being played here?Three characters fight to make sense of a surreal and collapsing world.
