- Synopsis
- ‘Hanoch Levin is the modern world on the stage... we badly need to hear what he has to say.’ David Lan Hanoch Levin (1943-1999) is, by almost unanimous consent, Israel’s greatest playwright ever, and he remains, to this day, one of Hebrew culture’s most important and diverse artists. His work includes comedies, tragedies, and satirical cabarets, many of which he directed himself. Levin died of cancer on August 18, 1999, continuing to work in the hospital on the staging of his play The Lamenters. During his lifetime he composed more than sixty plays and directed twenty-two of them. His plays have been translated into over twenty languages, and are staged around the world. Published in brand-new English translations, these selected volumes of Hanoch Levin, one of Israel's leading dramatists, aim to bring one of the most important playwrights of the Middle East to English speaking audiences. Plays Two contains the plays Suitcase Packers, The Lost Women of Troy, The Labour of Life, Walkers in the Dark and Requiem.
