Carver is often called the American Chekhov. Except, with Carver, litres of Gin replace the samovar. As in Chekhov, the drama is not played out in words, but also in the silences, things unspoken. Which explains the strange impression that there is no drama, at least in the appearance. His favourite theme: the couple. He portrays it in its fragile moments, when despite appearances the malaise seeps in like a poison.
In this staging of Love me tender the actor holds the central place. Six stories have been adapted for eight performers, each of whom plays two parts, each having to tune in, as in music and despite the disagreements of their characters, to two, to four, to eight...
