OM DENNE EPISODE
Howard Barker is a playwright, poet, painter, director, designer and essayist. He is, in many people's opinion, our greatest living playwright. His work is extremely difficult to categorise. He has coined the term Theatre of Catastrophe and has argued for the reintroduction of the tragic mode. His style is unique - poetic, tragic, speculative, full of wild imagination, contradictions, anachronisms, dangerous ideas, ruptures in character, time and space, and in all of this the position and opinion of the playwright, what we are 'supposed to think', is totally uncertain.
Howard takes us through his work, his thoughts on writing and the history of philosophy.
He helps us understand his writing process and his commitment to the foundation of contradiction and uncertainty in artistic work.
