Stoning Mary - Softcover
Mysterious while compelling, bewildering while intoxicating, Stoning Mary is a mix of Caryl Churchill, Sarah Kane, and Edward Bond. Yet Debbie Tucker Green has a voice all her own, one that mixes poetic rhythms with vernacular phrases, rap-song repetitions with complex psychology. In 2004, she won the Olivier Award for Most Promising Newcomer.

Review:
"'debbie tucker green is one of the most assured and extraordinary new voices we've heard in a long while... Electrifying' Independent '60 minutes of thrillingly high-impact theatre. If tucker green can continue in this rich vein, her future looks assured' London Evening Standard 'There is a sly, controlled power in the writing... and now I cannot get it out of my head' Guardian"
