Going Out: Theatre Stranded
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Following their successful, visually striking version of Witold Gombrowicz's Princess Ivona, which they cheekily retitled Princess Sharon, the female-oriented Scarlet Theatre Company are back with Stranded. Taking Crime on Goat Island by Ugo Betti as its inspiration, the piece explores the consequences of lust. It should help raise Betti's profile over here; in Italy, the judge-turned-playwright is compared to Pirandello. It should also give a boost to John Hegley's guitar-playing sidekick, Nigel Piper, who has composed the score.
