Hi Lionel, I am a student in Paris too, who is a bit interested in Cleansed. I had seen the production in Avignon last year and since then, i try to see her other plays. I managed to see 4;48 wtih Isabelle Huppert too. So if you are interested, I think I might help you as i have already seen it performed. I have the version "Purifiés" de l'arche.

I am a french student in a theatre school in Paris, and one of the play we are dealing with is CLEANSED I read it and I'm interesting in playing it.

I encounter difficulties with the didascalies. How to deal with it? I am not junkie, i dont want to cut my hands... But sarah wrote such actions, indeed, my question is: What does these didascalies mean?

My second question is what is trash? A large part of the play is trash, but not all the play. Choosing a scene that is not trash, a scene with neither sex nor drug, is avoiding the problem and is not interesting. I am somewhat lost with it. How to deal with this text?

(I have never seen a play from Sarah KANE on stage).

Thank you by advance, Lionel
