Skylight
Author(s):
David Hare
Broadway and the West End applauded this intensely clear-sighted and compassionate play about a love affair. Kyra is surprised to see the son of her former lover at her apartment in a London slum. He hopes she will reconcile with his distraught, now widowed, father. Tom, a restless, self-made restaurant and hotel tycoon, arrives later that evening, unaware of his son's visit. Kyra, who was his invaluable business associate and a close family friend until his wife discovered their affair, has since found a vocation teaching underprivileged children. Is the gap between them unbridgeable, or can they resurrect their relationship? Originally produced at London's Royal National Theatre, Skylight won the Guardian's coveted Best New Play award. "David Hare's luminously beautiful and wildly truthful Skylight is deeply and truly about peo-
ple. . . . It is a fascinating play . . . [that] tears at the heart. . . . Theatre going today doesn't get much better than this."-N.Y. Post. "Absolutely splendid. --N.Y. Times.
