An 'outstanding' play, says Paul Seven. Annie Baker makes every word and pause count as five women suffering from chronic pain read, doze, and talk. Their subject matter ranges from life, to suffering, to sex. The Atlantic Theater production which played off-Broadway has been brought to the National Theatre complete with direction by James Macdonald, design by dots, and lighting by Isabella Byrd. Paul says it was a privilege to see the American cast of Marylouise Burke, Mia Katigbak, Christina Kirk, Kristine Nielsen, Brenda Pressley and Pete Simpson.
Infinite Life was performed at the Linda Gross Theater in New York from August 18 to October 15, 2023, and from 22 November 2023 to 13 January 2024 at the National Theatre's Dorfman Theatre.
