The first collection of plays of one of Scotland's best-known
contemporary dramatists
EUROPE is set in a railway station at an unnamed border town where
old and new Europeans weave a tale of love, loss and longing.
"Fierce, compassionate, mightily ambitious drama?there is the
sharp, analytic intelligence, the crackling inventiveness of a real
writer buzzing about this gripping play" Scotsman
THE ARCHITECT charts the rise and fall of Leo Black, once an
idealistic and idolised designer, whose magnificent visions are now
crumbling, along with his family, in the light of grubby reality.
"Provides convincing evidence of David Greig's confident transition
from a dramatist of promise to one of stature" Independent.
Lyrical, soulful and darkly funny, THE COSMONAUT'S LAST MESSAGE
weaves together the stories of a fraught Scottish couple whose TV
is on the blink, a Norwegian UN peace negotiator, a young
prostitute, a French UFO researcher, a pregnant police woman and
two forgotten Cosmonauts who sadly orbit the planet.
"The most important playwright to have emerged north of the
border in years" Scotsman
