Sarah Kane's iconic play, with its uncompromising depiction of rape, torture and violence in a society at war with itself, remains one of the most provocative and acclaimed plays of the 1990s.
Foreword by Mel Kenyon The Play
Sarah Kane was born in 1971. Her work includes the plays Blasted, Phaedra's Love, Cleansed, 4.48 Psychosis and the short film Skin. Sarah Kane died in 1999, aged 28, and is now recognised as one of the most influential voices in modern European theatre.
Kane's play is wild, but artful too.
*The Observer*
This is a play of exceptional power and prescience.
*Daily Telegraph*
Blasted emerges yet again as a devastating achievement, a play of
furious passion and thrilling theatrical audacity . . . a landmark
play of undiminished power.
*The Times*
Twenty years after it opened to critical incomprehension and
outrage, there's no way that Sarah Kane's Blasted can be dismissed
as a naive shocker. It's far too smartly crafted for that. The play
wears its magpie borrowings on its sleeve - from Brecht to Beckett
to Pinter - and still rings loudly with the clarity of Kane's own
bell-like Cassandra voice.
*Guardian, 2015*
