TAILORS REQUIEM
… extraordinary work, dotted with moments of rich, theatrical image-making.
The Times
It is the master’s dream to create the perfect Tailor School to hand down and impart his craft. In teaching his apprentices – Bartok, Number and Agata – he neglects all other aspects of their education, both mentally and morally, so that, in a conventional sense, they grow up wild or blinkered. This almost silent play expresses the relationships of the four equal protagonists locked in their own world.
