Michaelmas Week 8

Best known for Sam Mendes' Donmar Warehouse production in which Nicole Kidman and Iain Glen famously bared all, The Blue Room is David Hare's chic, contemporary adaptation of Schnitzler's La Ronde. The play depicts a daisy-chain of encounters between five male characters and five female characters, but the narrative is concerned less with sex and more with emotional inarticulacy, betrayal and how each character forges a path through a landscape of lust, fantasy, self-delusion and regret.
