UND by Howard Barker

The world's peculiar not me.
The world is this demeaning spectacle not me.

Germany, 1941. A Jewish aristocrat waits for a guest. Evening falls and the afternoon tea grows cold. The last of her servants has disappeared. She continues to wait. Her guest does not arrive, but somebody keeps ringing the doorbell. Then the windows are smashed and the smell of smoke invades the house. Assailed by unseen forces, she piles up excuses, engaging in a battle of wills against the man who has come to destroy her.

Ben Webb's startling and sinister production of UND by Howard Barker was seen in August and September 2007 at the Canal Cafe Theatre in Little Venice.

A Court & Spark & Risking Enchantment co-production.
