"Poliakoff inhabits his own world, a world that contains all the factors and influences of modern living. He always has an eye fixed on where society and fashion is going. His plays are evolutionary reflections of the social scene" (Peter Hall) Cecilia, a woman who has taken refinement in her life to its very limits, has an affair with a man who, by being uniquely himself, is able to exert control over those around him. A startling love story and a fascinating comedy of opposites. Sienna Red transforms the seemingly ordinary into the extraordinary where the mundane environment of a DIY emporium becomes a place of surprising riches and disturbing passions.
Stephen Poliakoff, CBE, FRSL, is an acclaimed playwright, director and screenwriter and is recognised as one of the UK's leading dramatists.
