Complicite - three plays : Street of crocodiles, Mnemonic, Three lives of Lucie Cabrol

Part of the Contemporary Dramatists series
See all formats and editions

The "Street of Crocodiles" is inspired by the life and stories of Polish writer Bruno Schulz (1892-1942).

The play creates a vision of provincial Poland in the early part of the century as a restless ocean of unending flux.

The "Three Lives of Lucie Cabrol" is adapted from John Berger's short story.

The story becomes an unsentimental evocation of peasant life, a hymn to the tenacity of love and a Brechtian fable about the world's unfairness.

In "Mnemonic" an ice-preserved body - from 5,200 years ago - forms the central image of Theatre de Complicite's meditation on memory and morality.
