Chimerica and Other PlaysPaperback, 15 January 2019

"[A] gloriously rich, mind-expanding three-hour play, which explores the complex relationship between China and America." --Guardian on Chimerica

Lucy Kirkwood has swiftly made a name for herself as one of Britain's leading young playwrights and is widely considered to be the natural successor to the great Caryl Churchill. Kirkwood's plays are infused with a sharp wit and a fierce intelligence, taking an unflinching look at the issues affecting our world today. This collection gathers together five of Kirkwood's plays, including Chimerica, Tinderbox, it felt empty when the heart went at first but it is alright now, small hours, and NSFW.
