Peepshow - (Oberon Modern Plays) by Isabel Wright (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Peepshow tells the story of seven little lives in a large city. Frantic get under the brickwork of life in a tower block as two friends, four lovers and one loner expose glimpses of their urban lives to an audience of voyeurs. Can we trust what we see through the windows or what we hear throught the walls? Do we really know what is going on behind closed doors? Drawing inspiration from music videos, this is a peepshow with a difference, tantalisingly revealing flashes of life from a tower block to give you the taste without the touch of life in a high rise. Written by Isabel Wright and directed by Frantic's Scott Graham and Steven Hoggett, Peepshow is a collaboration with groundbreaking band Lamb whose sound and songs lace this unique project.
