'A robust new farce(that) shows Shepard's gift for finding deadpan surrealism in bucolic speech... As hilarious as it is sobering.' New York Times 'Deliriously entertaining and deeply scary... A shivering work of existential mystery.' Newsday

Reseña del editor

A stunning new play by the great American dramatist

Described by Sam Shepard as 'a take-off on Republican fascism', this uncompromising black comedy was written just before the 2004 US presidential election.

Frank and Emma are American dairy farmers, alone in the Mid-West. Nothing ever happens. Nothing has happened for years. But now there's a mysterious man hiding in their basement and a government official has come knocking at their door.

The God of Hell had its European premiere at the Donmar Warehouse, London, on 20 October 2005.
