The Pillowman
SecondStory Repertory
16587 NE 74th Street Redmond
The ghoulish pleasure of a well-told "scary story" reaches its pinnacle in The Pillowman, Martin McDonagh's shocking, disconcerting and altogether memorable play. Set largely in an interrogation room in an unnamed totalitarian state, this black comedy follows fiction writer Katurian as he is questioned by police. The authorities suspect him of committing a series of murders that are strikingly similar to the gruesome crimes described in his writings. Since only one of his stories has been published, Katurian is the prime suspect. This brilliant work about storytelling and its implications won McDonagh the 2004 Olivier Award for Best New Play and two Tony Awards. Now SecondStory Repertory brings a new production to the stage with echoes of Stoppard, Kafka and the Brothers Grimm.
