The Skriker by Caryl Churchill, who Tony Kushner calls the greatest living playwright in the English language, is a spectacular play. Churchill describes the title character as a "polluted, not-believed-in nature spirit who comes up to the world to get love, attention and revenge." The Skriker tries to enlist the help of two friends: one pregnant and one who has killed her child. With tragic poetry and stunning linguistic pyrotechnics, the play examines the disturbing forces that have led us to the brink of ecological destruction. Contains material that may not be considered suitable for children. Discretion is advised.
