The Children & Have I None

by Edward Bond

Two new plays from Britain's most challenging dramatist Have I None and The Children are both set in a late-21st-century apocalyptic landscape where human behaviour is monitored, living spaces are designated and where any emotional displays are immediately eradicated. In The Children a teenager's unquestioning loyalty to his mother has fatal consequences, while in Have I None a couple's lives are irreversibly changed by the appearance of a disturbing stranger who questions their existence.Edward Bond is "a great playwright - many, particularly in continental Europe, would say the greatest living English playwright" (Independent)

Very strange play but I did enjoying it. I almost got in the play "The Children" almost 10 years ago but I turned it down for professional theatre to performed. Meanwhile, I did read it over and over again. The image in my head was very disturb but like the way the characters talk to each other or to her/himself.
