Candid Polaroids

Captured in “candid polaroid pictures”, the characters of Ravenhill’s new play are a former social rebel who served time for murder for political reasons, his ex–girlfriend who made the usual way for many “from hippie to yuppie”, a nightclub stripper who is regularly beaten by her boyfriend, a gay man dying of AIDS and a sex slave he bought. This is a play about the vicissitudes of love, which, “without knowing shame”, can arise from any “bullshit”.
