Fosse: Plays One

<b>Includes the plays Someone is Going to Come, The Guitar Man, The Name and The Child</b><br/><br/>In Someone is Going to Come the two of them want to be together, just the two of them, so they leave the city and buy a remote house by the sea. But is it possible to do what they want to do? Won't somebody come? Surely someone will come.<br/><br/>The Guitar Man is a poignant monologue in which a busker sings songs to an audience that is always on the move, always passing him by.<br/><br/>The Name (winner of the Ibsen Prize in Norway) tells the story of an estranged family forced to live under one roof. When a pregnant girl and the father of the child have nowhere to live, they move into her parents' house. But the parents have never met the father-to-be, and don't yet know about the pregnancy.<br/><br/>In The Child a man and a woman find each other in a bus stop on a rainy night. They hold each other close. They rent an old house out of town. The woman becomes pregnant. But the child is too small to survive.<br/><br/>In these four varied plays Jon Fosse's unique linguistic style, at once poetic and naturalistic, magnifies the love and pain of ordinary people seeking to live their lives.<br/><br/>Cast sizes: 3,6,1,6
