A girl and a taxi driver meet on an empty street and share a kiss, then they share something more... Their brief encounter sets off a chain reaction of nine increasingly scintillating scenes. Played by two powerful actors and placed in ten different settings, the characters we meet along the way run the gamut from perverse to dissatisfied, powerful to comically inept. Freely adapted from Arthur Schnitzler's La Ronde, David Hare's The Blue Room shines a light on sex and social class, projection and illusion, love and betrayal. It reveals seduction and barely harnessed sensuality at their most grotesque, and it will leave you sick with desire.
