A Number by Caryl Churchill, No. 1

Sketched rendering and floorplan for the play "A Number" by Caryl Churchill. I included two sketches of different profiles the hanging screens might cut in the black space.


Amazon.com has this to say about the play

Caryl Churchill, hailed by Tony Kushner as "the greatest living English language playwright," has turned her extraordinary dramatic gifts to the subject of human cloning-how might a man feel to discover that he is only one in a number of identical copies. And which one of him is the original. . . ? A Number opens in London's Royal Court Theatre in October, directed by Stephen Daldry (Billy Elliot).

There is a review of the original performance posted here.

You could buy the script from Amazon, like I did.

I was lucky enough to see her most recent play, "Drunk Enough To Say I Love You," at the Royal Court Theatre when I was in London this past fall. I mentioned buying the script for that show in my travel blog here.
