The iconic drama about human cloning.
Salter thought he had only two sons: the troubled child he sent away at four years old, and the genetically identical copy he had created and raised in his place. Then he discovers there are more—many more. When the truth about a long-buried cloning experiment comes to light, Salter is forced to confront the consequences of a decision made decades earlier. As questions of identity, nature, nurture, and responsibility collide, A Number turns a startling scientific premise into a gripping and deeply human family drama. A Number, first produced in 2002, is one of the earliest dramatic examinations of the possibilities and physical and moral consequences of human cloning, redefining what it means to be human and part of a family. With A Number, Caryl Churchill shows us the world that’s coming. Caryl Churchill is one of the world’s most critically acclaimed and commercially successful playwrights, the author of dozens of plays for stage, radio and television in a career that spans nearly seven decades. Among her best-known works are Top Girls, Cloud 9, Love and Information, Serious Money, and Far Away. The London native and Oxford graduate was inducted into the American Theatre Hall of Fame in 2010.
