Dreaming
Death doesn't get the last laugh, but it's a close-run thing in Peter Barnes's chunky, powerful new play set in the aftermath of the Wars of the Roses. It's the kind of play that demonstrates the difficulty of distinguishing between a giggle and a scream in your own throat. It makes laughter sound like a death rattle.
