Offending the Audience and Self-Accusation by Peter Handke
Peter Handke is a young Austrian-born writer who has already won a considerable reputation in Germany with his novels and plays. In the first play the subject is the audience. The actors speak to the audience and establish that there is no play, no story, no action, no hidden meaning, just themselves speaking to the audience. In the second play the anonymous speakers build up through the speech forms of a "confession" a vivid picture of the way a human being is integrated into society.

These two plays introduce a remarkably original talent to the English reader. Offending the Audience was first staged in Britain by The Other Company in 1970.
