In his 2003 play, The Pillowman, Irish playwright Martin McDonagh weaves a haunting and darkly funny tale. In the police state of McDonagh's Kafkaesque world, writer Katurian sacrifices his life to save his fiction. At times horrific and at time absurd, this quintessentially theatrical play, winner of the 2004 Olivier Award for Best New Play, challenges our notions of good and evil, the nature and purpose of art, and ultimately, the thrilling narrative potential of theater itself.
