REVIEW: Powerful Staging of THE PILLOWMAN by Washington University Performing Arts Department

Playwright Martin McDonagh has a knack for crafting pitch black comedies that find humor in the darkest of subjects. In his play, THE PILLOWMAN, he gives us a horror fiction writer trapped in a totalitarian state, who's being interrogated because the content of his gruesome work happens to coincide with a recent string of child murders. This is heavy stuff, but McDonagh mines his material for the unexpected, producing comic genius amidst the madness.

Washington University Performing Arts Department Presents THE PILLOWMAN Nov 19-22

Set amidst a Kafkaesque police state, THE PILLOWMAN opens in a stark interrogation room, where the adult Katurian - a slaughterhouse worker beginning to find recognition as a writer of gruesome fairy tales - sits blindfolded, his brother Michal in the adjoining room. Their interrogators, the outrageously profane good-cop-bad-cop duo of Tupolski and Ariel, suspect that Katurian's stories may not be entirely fiction. And in fact, they do bear remarkable resemblance to a series of grisly child murders that the detectives are currently investigating.
