Title: Her voice will go on
Review: These, the first two plays by Sarah Kane, the most brilliantly original voice of 1990s theatre, are essential. Blasted captures the full horror of contemporary war and socks home scalpel-sharp observations about life, abuse of all kinds and extreme despair, yet finds some compassion amid it all. Phaedra's Love is a majestic macabre comedy, a re-working of the Greek tragedy of Phaedra, yet again with serious points to make about obsessive love, extreme boredom and hypocrisy.Sarah's work will live on for centuries, both through performances of her own plays and through the new writers influenced by her who are already emerging.I met Sarah twice, and she was a very lovely lady, so may you die horribly, Colorado, you scum.
