Sarah Rühle Poradie kníh

Sarah Ruhl je americká dramatička, ktorej tvorba sa ponára do hĺbky ľudskej skúsenosti. Jej hry majstrovsky pretkávajú všedné aspekty každodenného života s nadčasovými mýtickými témami lásky a vojny. Pôvodne sa venovala poézii, čo je badateľné v jej bohatej a evokatívnej práci s jazykom, ktorá dodáva jej dramatickým dielam jedinečnú poetickú kvalitu. Ruhl je oceňovaná pre svoje živé a dobrodružné divadelné diela, ktoré s dojemnou silou juxtaponujú realitu a mýtus.

This volume is the first publication of Sarah Ruhl, “a playwright with a unique comic voice, perspective, and sense of theater” (Variety), who is fast leaving her mark on the American stage. In the award-winning Clean House—a play of uncommon romance and uncommon comedy—a maid who hates cleaning dreams about creating the perfect joke, while a doctor who treats cancer leaves his heart inside one of his patients. This volume also includes Eurydice, Ruhl’s reinvention of the tragic Greek tale of love and loss, together with a third play still to be named.Sarah Ruhl received the prestigious Susan Smith Blackburn Prize in 2004 for her play The Clean House, which has been produced at Yale Repertory Theatre in New Haven, Wilma Theatre in Philadelphia, South Coast Repertory Theatre in Costa Mesa, and Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in Washington, DC. Her play Eurydice has been produced at Madison Repertory Theatre and Berkeley Repertory Theatre.
