| Summary |
A young man has an affair with a married woman, but he is terrified her husband will challenge him to a duel and kill him. At a party, he flirts with a girl who believes she is truly loved. Life seems full of joy. The doorbell rings. The husband enters the room. Based on Schnitzler's play 'Liebelei', David Harrower's 'Sweet Nothings' captures the power of sexual longing, the cruelty of tradition and the vulnerability of those in love. His adaptation was first performed at the Young Vic Theatre, London, in March 2009. |
