À propos de cet e-book
'Art's my hobby too.' Hobby?!
Sasha was destined to take the art world by storm. At the age of fifteen pop stars wanted his paintings, and a new exhibition was going to make him a rich man.
But now he serves in a stationers, and no one's even heard of him... what went wrong?
Philip Ridley's darkly comic new play is about art, family, memory, and being haunted by the life we never lived.
This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere performance at London's Southwark Playhouse, which was performed live and live-streamed around the world in November 2020.
