Description for Skylight
Paperback. There are times in the theatre when you suddenly find yourself in the grip of silence. There is no fidgeting or coughing, no shifting about in seats: the audience's attention is so tense it is almost palpable. This is because it is both thrilling and dangerous. This play is punctuated by such moments. Num Pages: 112 pages. BIC Classification: DD. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 197 x 130 x 8. Weight in Grams: 114.
He's not like what you'd call rational-articulate. He doesn't want argument. For Christ's sake, Kyra, you teach. Language belongs to the past. This is the world of Super Mario. Bang! Splat!

Skylight premiered at the National Theatre, London, 1995. It won an Olivier Award for Play of the Year; and an Evening Standard Award for Revival of the Year, 2014.
