| Description Hurlyburly, David Rabe’s tour de force play is a shocking and brutally comic reflection on a decade of decadence. Welcome to Eddie’s world. It exists at the very juncture where Hollywood meets the mountains, where the almost-rich and the not-yet-famous live on cheap thrills and heady ambition while searching for true love and redemption. Here, Eddie and his three best friends engage in a wild life of witty repartee and snappy come-backs, of ex-wives and future lovers, of hard partying and late nights, of sex, lies and self-obsession. Hurlyburly is a scathingly funny and touchingly human story about the quest for meaning in our morally muddled times. Eddie and his friends continue their entertaining and manic pursuit of sensation – until a series of encounters with destiny, decadence and even death convinces Eddie to plunge beneath the surface… and discover his soul… |
