Sarah Rühle Libros

Sarah Ruhl es una dramaturga estadounidense cuya obra se adentra en las profundidades de la experiencia humana. Sus obras entrelazan magistralmente los aspectos mundanos de la vida cotidiana con temas míticos atemporales de amor y guerra. Originalmente atraída por la poesía, sus raíces se manifiestan en su uso rico y evocador del lenguaje, lo que confiere a sus obras dramáticas una calidad lírica única. Ruhl es celebrada por sus vibrantes y aventuradas creaciones teatrales, que yuxtaponen conmovedoramente lo real con lo mítico.

This volume is the first publication of Sarah Ruhl, “a playwright with a unique comic voice, perspective, and sense of theater” (Variety), who is fast leaving her mark on the American stage. In the award-winning Clean House—a play of uncommon romance and uncommon comedy—a maid who hates cleaning dreams about creating the perfect joke, while a doctor who treats cancer leaves his heart inside one of his patients. This volume also includes Eurydice, Ruhl’s reinvention of the tragic Greek tale of love and loss, together with a third play still to be named.Sarah Ruhl received the prestigious Susan Smith Blackburn Prize in 2004 for her play The Clean House, which has been produced at Yale Repertory Theatre in New Haven, Wilma Theatre in Philadelphia, South Coast Repertory Theatre in Costa Mesa, and Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in Washington, DC. Her play Eurydice has been produced at Madison Repertory Theatre and Berkeley Repertory Theatre.
