Críticas
'...a feisty docu-drama about Paul Watson...a fascinating mix of troubled and troubling biography and autobiography...holds you in a steely grip.' Four Stars - Time Out '...an engrossingly subjective docu-drama which feels psychologically acute and politically important...a really superb piece of theatre.' The Stage 'The Body of an American is a play about writing a play but it's also an intricate meditation on the nature of memory and guilt. ' Four Stars - Evening Standard ' - a play that tightens its grip as it probes where war lives, and discovers we each carry it inside ourselves.' Four stars - Guardian ' - provides ample food for thought - Moment by moment the livewire, oddly introspective theatrical experience keeps us on our toes, and accumulatively it presents us with a debate about where we should draw the line between observation and involvement, what's good about curiosity and what's bad.' Four stars - Telegraph
Reseña del editor
The Body of an American speaks to a moment in recent history when a single, stark photograph - of the body of an American dragged from the wreck of a Blackhawk through the streets of Mogadishu - reshaped the course of global events. In a story ranging far in time and place, from Rwanda to Afghanistan to the Canadian Arctic, and in powerful, theatrical language, Dan O'Brien explores the ethical and personal consequences of Paul Watson's photograph, as well as the interplay between political upheaval and the experience of trauma in an age saturated by images and information. Flying from Kabul to the Canadian High Arctic, The Body of an American sees two actors jump between more than thirty roles in an exhilarating new form of documentary drama. It urgently places those two mean's battles - both public and private - against a backdrop of some of the world's most iconic images of war.
