THE PILLOWMAN • by Martin McDonagh • • March 13th ~ 29th 2008 • • HELD OVER until April 5th due to popular demand! • Comedies don't come any blacker than The Pillowman, the spellbinding stunner of a play by Martin McDonagh.....what The Pillowman is about, above all, is storytelling and the thrilling narrative potential of theater itself. Let's make one thing clear: Mr. McDonagh is not preaching the power of stories to redeem or cleanse or to find a core of solid truth hidden among life's illusions. And he is certainly not exalting the teller of stories as a morally superior being. • The New York Times • • • Show dates: • Half price ($6) preview: • Wednesday, March 12th at 8 pm.

I'm not particularly pessimistic or dark. Am I? Not on a daily basis. He allowed that in his late teens and early 20s shyness and being alone a lot made him sad. Little wonder. He had left school and holed up in the family home in a working-class London neighborhood to become a writer. Now I'm happy to be alone, he said. He hints at unhappy relationships in the past and won't say if there's someone in his life right now. When his mother tells him she wishes he'd write a nice romantic comedy or something, he reminds her of The Lieutenant of Inishmore. It was romantic. It's funny. Everyone dies, but it's kind of like life. - Martin McDonagh • • http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/13/mov...
