Humanity Gets Only a Bit Part

"There’s bleak, and then there’s “Blasted.” Plays don’t come any darker or harsher than the astounding drama with which the 23-year-old Sarah Kane made her London debut at the Royal Court Theater in 1995. Reviewers then reacted with the anger and astonishment their Victorian predecessors displayed when faced with the scandal of Ibsen’s “Ghosts.” Wrote one critic, “Until last night I thought I was immune from shock in any theater.” Others simply called it “vile” and compared it to “having your whole head held down in a bucket of offal."
