{"product_id":"shinn-plays-1","title":"Shinn Plays: 1","description":"A first volume of four plays from the Amercian playwright whose play Dying City was a critical and popular success at the Royal Court Theatre in May 2006.  * Other People is set in New York among a twenty-something generation whose lives and hopes are blighted by disillusionment born of affluence and impotence in the face of the unknown. The play premiered in March 2000. * Where Do We Live, set in a post-September 11 world, asks to what extent New York's liberal multicultural society is under threat and how much we should care about the state in which our neighbours live. * The Coming World moves from Shinn's usual Manhattan environment to the coast of New England, where Dora is persuaded, against her better judgement, to help her ex, Ed, in a desperate attempt to escape from spiralling debt. Produced at the Soho Theatre in 2001. * Dying City shifts between 2004 and 2005 - the eve of one brother's departure for Iraq and the day that his twin brother visits his now widowed sister-in-law. The play premiered at the Royal Court Theatre in May 2006 to great critical acclaim.  The books also features an introduction by the author.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55634231427416,"sku":"9780713683271","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780713683271_625dcd4a-b6d9-4f7b-8c1f-31da54c1932a.jpg?v=1778676381","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/shinn-plays-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
