Time and the Room

By Botho Strauss, Translated by Jeremy Sams
Directed by Gabriel Gawin

Hinged on the workings of time and juxtaposing characters and ideas in series of intertwined encounters, Time and the Room sets out to explore the complex nature of human experience through a range of unconventional and often surprisingly comic forms. Sensitive, poetic and extremely thought provoking, the play motivates and inspires new ways of thinking about theatre and art.

In Time and the Room, the room contrives to be the play's main character.

Strauss's sharply etched, quirkily, mysteriously intertwined characters are brimming with surprises. (The Independent)
