Beschreibung

A new play by the award-winning author of The Memory of Water




London, the 1990s. Jack is afraid of dying, while his 40-something daughter is preparing for her wedding to a black lawyer, Sholto. As the family gathers for the forthcoming festivities, Jack attempts to reconcile himself with the unexpected decisions of those in whom he has always trusted, as well as starting to question his own, not unblemished past. A haunting play about memory, guilt and redemption.
"An acute and funny writer, Stephenson carves out a welcome territory that is distinctive, contemporary and theatrical" Independent

Mappa Mundi is published to tie in with its premiere at the National theatre, London in October 2002
