Three More Sleepless Nights

by Caryl Churchill

An explosive play about human interaction and love-tangled relationships.

Think of him in bed do you? lying there thinking of him then give me a rucking, thinking of him were you? think of him when you’re with me? pretend it’s him do you? eh? Wasting your time there because Charlie wouldn’t touch you if you was the last woman.

One double bed. Two couples. Three short acts of love-tangled conversation that expertly twist and turn, from existential angst to sci-fi films; from explosive arguments to long silences.

Caryl Churchill’s compelling play depicts a powerful look at the fabric of human relationships through the eyes of two ill-fated couples.

'It’s Churchill’s ability to continually reinvent the form that most writers would identify as her genius' Mark Ravenhill
