Caryl Churchill’s Escaped Alone premiered at the Royal Court Theatre in January 2016 under the direction of James Macdonald, and was revived, at the same venue and with the same cast, between 25 January and 11 February 2017, before going on tour in the UK and USA. After a brief overview of Churchill’s latest production, I will focus on her preference for short theatrical forms as well as for environmental and eschatological themes.

Abstract

Caryl Churchill’s Escaped Alone premiered at the Royal Court Theatre in January 2016 under the direction of James Macdonald, and was revived, at the same venue and with the same cast, between 25 January and 11 February 2017, before going on tour in the UK and USA. After a brief overview of Churchill’s latest production, I will focus on her preference for short theatrical forms as well as for environmental and eschatological themes.
