Clouds by English playwright and novelist Michael Frayn (1933-).
Contents
The original text
Set in Cuba in the mid-1970s, Clouds concerns a pair of British journalists – Owen Shorter (Dinsdale Landen) and Myra Hill (Morag Hood) – in pursuit of soft news stories about the country. This play is a farcical comedy making great play out of the English abroad, who see only what they want to see, and make little or no attempt to engage with the local cultures.
First performed 1977.
