Realism/Terrorism: The Walworth Farce, Kim Solga Jan 2011

Realism/Terrorism: The Walworth Farce, Kim Solga

Department of English Publications

Kim Solga reviews The Walworth Farce – a "farce" in name only – as a play that is actually about the dangerous performatics of memory. As it explores the ways in which the theatre both enables and *dis*ables the drive to remember, it thinks seriously about traumatic re-enactment and the limits of the theatre as a site for such.
