When playwright Sarah Kane first broke onto the UK theatre scene in 1995, she polarized critics, who labeled her startling and often violent work "brutalist" or "nihilist", with some dismissing it altogether as "filth". But when Kane's fourth play, Crave, debuted in 1998, everything changed about the way critics and audiences began to view her small, dynamic body of work. In Crave, Kane's penultimate work, four heartbroken voices weave together a lyrical coalescence of hope and despair. Kane's tortured ruminations on loss and love are delicately revived by these four souls who all yearn for what is perpetually out of reach. Single Carrot Theatre's production of Crave marks the debut of any Sarah Kane production in Baltimore.
