Someone sneezes. Someone can’t get a signal. Someone won’t answer the door. Someone put an elephant on the stairs. Someone’s not ready to talk. Someone is her brother’s mother. Someone hates irrational numbers. Someone told the police. Someone got a message from the traffic light. Someone’s never felt like this before. In this fast moving kaleidoscope, more than a hundred characters try to make sense of what they know.
"Love and Information" by Caryl Churchill is a captivating and thought-provoking play that delves into the complexities of human connection in the digital age.
In a series of loosely connected scenes, we explore the ways in which love and information intersect and shape our lives. The play unfolds like a mosaic, offering glimpses into the lives of diverse characters grappling with the flood of information in the modern world, while also navigating the intricate landscape of love and relationships. With sharp wit, humour, and a keen understanding of the human experience, Churchill's play prompts us to question the nature of our connections and the impact of technology on the fabric of our relationships. "Love and Information" is a compelling exploration of the ways in which love and information shape our identities and influence the course of our lives.
