She sits in a stark, archetypical room, indefinitely, waiting to know her fate. She is being watched. Her unnamed watcher is her only companion, speaking to her from the surveillance room. In this isolating but oddly intimate setting, Isla and her watcher form a bond, leading to an ultimate, startling act of love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this new play, Walsh displays his quintessential knack for probing the humanity in his characters even when they are trapped in the most dehumanizing of realities. Beauty is found amid seeming hopelessness through the poetic dialogue and intense emotional journey of those stuck in this liminal world. With the shadows of Beckett, Sartre, and Orwell creeping throughout his new work, Walsh ties together themes of longing and loneliness in this unconventional love story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnda Walsh\u003c\/strong\u003e is an award-winning Irish playwright.
