Artist Descending a Staircase

A Humor, Theatre, Drama book. Skill without imagination is craftsmanship and gives us many useful objects such as wickerwork picnic baskets....

In 1972 an elderly avant garde artist is murdered, leaving his two friends suspecting each other. To reveal why, successive scenes flashback toward the 1920s and then progress back to 1972. Each of the three was infatuated with Sophie. Before she tragically went blind she fell in love with one of them after viewing his picture in a gallery. Which artist Sophie loved has been a bone of contention all their lives. This full length play in one act was a radio play before it was staged to acclaim in London.

Originally written for radio in 1972, this will be the first new production to be heard on the airwaves for 43 years.Taking its... Clever, but not one of Stoppards best. As regards the discussion on the nature of modern art I found the much more recent play 'Art' a bit more interesting and funnier. Clever, but not one of Stoppards best.
