Includes the plays And We'll Never be Parted, The Son, Visits and
Meanwhile the lights go down and everything becomes black In And We'll
Never be Parted, Jon Fosse exploits theatre's unique potential for
ambiguity: as a woman anxiously waits for her husband, are we watching
reality, fantasy, memory, or even a ghost story? The Son concerns an
ageing and isolated couple, whose long-absent son has a score to
settle with their meddlesome neighbour.In the oblique but
psychologically penetrating Visits, a withdrawn teenager, apparently
upset by the attentions of her mother's boyfriend, turns to her
brother for help. The short play Meanwhile the lights go down and
everything becomes black, exploring the dilemmas of an errant husband,
his young lover and his family, displays Fosse's characteristic
compression of theatrical time and space at its most concentrated.
