| Summary |
Paris in the late 1800s: the place for artists and romantics. Arthur Rimbaud and Paul Verlaine, two of the greatest French poets, embark upon a near fatal affair that sparks questions about love, poetry and the importance of present experience. Christopher Hampton's historical play takes a close and very human look at the two world-famous poets, exploring the power of art and the nature of creativity, questioning how much of oneself one should give - both to one's craft and to the person one loves. 'Total Eclipse' premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 1968. |
