Bingo

Viac o knihe

dward Bond's play "Bingo" subtitled "Scenes of money and death" is about the last days of Shakespeare. Bond's Shakespeare has withdrawn from the theatre and lives in Stratford the life of a well-to-do country gentleman. But the material security he has worked to achieve brings him no peace or happiness and the play evokes the image of an exhausted genius tormented with conscience about his own cruelty to his family, the cruelty of the society he believes in and his own equivocal achievements. "Was anything done?" he asks repeatedly.
