Summary Elemental, stark and with a ruthless logic, 'The Crime of the Twenty-First Century' is a play about a devastated, desperate world, about the possibility of society and the inevitable momentum of violence. The dialogue is angular and tortured, the play is heavy with the great pain of a destructive world. Bond's play was first performed in 2001 at Le Théâtre National de la Colline in Paris. It is the second play in his 'The Paris Pentad' (originally called 'The Colline Tetralogy'), preceded by 'Coffee' and followed by 'Born', 'People' and 'Innocence'.
