"It isn’t about being or not being dead. It’s about what you leave behind."

Critically acclaimed Broadway play The Pillowman, written by Academy-Award-winning writer and director Martin McDonagh makes its Hong Kong debut at the Fringe Club from March 26 to 29. Set in an unnamed totalitarian state, The Pillowman revolves around the interrogation of the writer Katurian, whose gruesome stories bear uncanny resemblances to a series of child murders.

Simple questioning quickly develops into a complex web of lies that engulfs Katurian, his brother, and the two detectives assigned to the case. A fervent, unflinching examination of the nature and purpose of art, the play raises questions about the relationships between fear and obedience, family fidelity, and the things we leave behind.
