Bash: Latter-Day Plays - 1999
Bash: latterday plays is a collection of three dark one-act plays written by Neil LaBute. Each play is an exploration of the complexities of evil in everyday life, and two of the works, "iphigenia in orem" and "medea redux" have direct Greek influence, specifically that of Euripides. In production, these three short mono-duet dramas are sometimes presented in varying orders and sometimes omitting one or two of the works. In publication, however, the plays are presented in the following order: "iphigenia in orem" followed by "a gaggle of saints" and concluding with "medea redux". The plays premiered at the Douglas Fairbanks Theater in New York City on June 24, 1999 and featured performances by Ron Eldard, Calista Flockhart and Paul Rudd. They were later shown on cable television. The play was later produced in 2003 by barebones productions in a production directed by Jeff Cordell.
It later made its West End theatre premiere on January 10, 2007 at the Trafalgar Studio 2, directed by Tamara Harvey and starring Harry Lloyd, Juliet Rylance, David Sturzaker and Jodie Whittaker. The play was revived on May 13, 2014 once again at Trafalgar Studios 2, directed by Jonathan O'Boyle and starring Philip Scott-Wallace, Dani Harrison, Tom Vallen and Rebecca Hickey. This production transferred from the Old Red Lion Theatre and was the West End debut for all four actors.
The characters featured in each of these works come from different backgrounds of the Mormon religious tradition, a religion LaBute espoused before receiving religious discipline (disfellowshipment) due to the defamatory nature of this play. He has since left the church.
