←Recommendations of STEALING THE SCREAM (10-minute play)

As someone who loves Edvard Munch, this short play sheds a new darkness on existentialism. It’s quite like Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’ in a way!

The act of stealing The Scream is its own existential cry of despair in this fascinating exploration of a possible motive for the theft. Both characters are deftly drawn and the situation is both sad and absorbing.

A truly astounding moment in art history of the last 30 years. J.S. Puller has given us a brilliant sneak peak into the mechanisms of a crime. Funny, sad, and relatable throughout, this short play is a gem.

What goes through the mind of a thief who nabs one of the world’s most famous paintings? J. S. Puller cleverly explores the motivations, the unresolved pain and the internal debates that lead to the shocking act. Puller packs a ton into 10 minutes, a testament to her storytelling skills.

A clever and funny look at existential despair and the wild things it makes us do. Where in the world is...a theatre to produce this play? :)
