Includes the plays The Park, Seven Doors and Time and the Room.
These three plays, first published in German in the 1980s, show Strauss developing an enigmatic, unsettling and uniquely theatrical style. Set in Hamburg, The Park is Strauss’s take on A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Seven Doors brings together a jilted husband, a wedding without guests and two monks with an intimate knowledge of hell. In Time and the Room, the room contrives to be the play’s main character.
