Read Synopsis
A Number is the latest play from Caryl Churchill (Far Away, Serious Money, Cloud Nine) whom The Times of London calls “the most daring of our dramatists.” As A Number begins, a son confronts his father with the startling knowledge that he has genetically identical counterparts and is merely one of “a number.” Upon this topical foundation, Churchill shifts gears to engage in a penetrating, timeless inquiry aimed at the intersection of morality, nature versus nurture, and the very substance of love. When A Number premiered at London’s Royal Court Theatre in September 2002, The Telegraph said, “What a tremendous play this is, moving, thought-provoking, and dramatically thrilling.”
