Directed by Katie Mitchell. The cast includes Kate Duchne, Michael Gould and Jacqueline Kington.
Martin Crimp's '17 scenarios for the theatre', shocking and hilarious by turns, are a roller-coaster of late 20th century obsessions. From pornography and ethnic violence, to terrorism and unprotected sex, its strange array of nameless characters attempt to invent the perfect story to encapsulate our time.
Since its Royal Court premiere 10 years ago, Attempts on her Life has been translated into more than 20 languages. This is its first major UK revival.
