Dennis Kelly: Plays Two Summary

Dennis Kelly: Plays Two: Our Teacher's a Troll; Orphans; Taking Care of Baby; DNA; The Gods Weep by Dennis Kelly

Dennis Kelly is one of the UK's finest contemporary dramatists. This second volume of his work collects together: Our Teacher's a Troll, Orphans, Taking Care of Baby, DNA and The Gods Weep. Also features a foreword by journalist, author and critic, Aleks Sierz. Without doubt, Kelly is one of the most multi-talented British playwrights to emerge in the last decade - Aleks Sierz (from the foreword)

Dennis Kelly: Plays Two Reviews

A taut, compelling thriller and a modern-day spin on Lord of the Flies, exploring group behaviour and moral equivocation * Financial Times (On DNA) *
'A celebration of naughtiness and questioning, it's a raucous, skin-crawling treat' * The Guardian (On Our Teacher's a Troll) *
'A hilarious dark fable' * The Herald (On Our Teacher's a Troll) *
'A cast-iron understanding of the morally bankrupt way we live now' * Daily Telegraph (On Orphans) *
'In its examination of how stories are told, is an imaginatively realised and moving story' * The Guardian (On Taking Care of Baby) *
'Admirable in its ambition and daring, in its willingness to take on huge themes such as destruction and redemption' * Financial Times (On The Gods Weep) *
