CLARK IN SARAJEVO

$5.40 – $15.00

Clark in Sarajevo is a surreal and poetic play that traces the journey of Clark Cant, a reporter who decides to become a war correspondent in an effort to challenge his ordinariness. He goes to Sarajevo in the middle of the siege, encountering lives distorted by war, stretched to the limits of their endurance. The play is about these human issues, not the external political issues of war. Variable cast. Originally done with 6 actors, there are 45 roles and it makes a stunning large cast play.

REVIEW: CLARK IN SARAJEVO BY CATHERINE ZIMDAHL

ROBIN PASCOE, THE WEST AUSTRALIAN, 8 JUNE 2011

"The play takes us deeper into the lives and sad disintegration of locals through Anna-Marie Biagioni's Lala and her family. Like Clark, the audience are confronted with senseless acts of brutality. Like Clark, we lose journalistic objectivity. As he observes, the play's conundrum is neither black nor white."
