Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Man turns tree into daughter! "Since your daughter's death, I've not been much of a hypnotist." Set in a stage hypnotist's act, "An Oak Tree" is a vivid and absurdly comic play about how we fill the gaps in life. It's performed by two actors, one of whom will have never seen or read a word of the play they're in - until they're in it. There will be a new second actor at each performance. "An Oak Tree" is a brave and challenging story about loss, suggestion and the power of the mind. It is a remarkable sequel to Tim Crouch's first play "My Arm", which was a major hit at the Traverse in 2003. "An Oak Tree" opens at the Traverse Theatre at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August 2005.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Tim Crouch is a UK theatre artist based in Brighton. He writes plays, performs in them and takes responsibility for their production. He started to make his own work in 2003. Before then he was an actor.

Tim works with a number of associates and collaborators to produce his writing. There isn’t a company structure; things and people are brought together when they are needed. The starting process has always been a text written by Crouch. Early work was made in response to a self-generated impulse to tell a story or explore a form. This impulse is still the first motivation but, lately, it’s become slightly more formalized through the involvement of various commissioning theatres and organizations. Tim’s work tours extensively to UK and international venues and festivals.
