  • INTO the NUMBERS by Christopher Chen
    Press Information ! ! VIBRANT NEW WRITING | UNIQUE REDISCOVERIES The European premiere INTO THE NUMBERS by Christopher Chen. Directed by Georgie Staight. Set and Costume Design by Isabella Van Braeckel. Lighting by Matt Cater. Sound and Composition by Benjamin Winter. Presented by Arsalan Sattari Productions in association with Neil McPherson for the Finborough Theatre. Cast: Elizabeth Chan. Timothy Knightly. Jennifer Lim. Amy Molloy. Mark Ota. “Words... they have their limits. They aren’t the same as the things they represent.” Commemorating the 80th anniversary of the Nanking massacre, as well as the first production at the Finborough Theatre building in its 150th anniversary year, the European premiere of Into the Numbers by multi-award-winning American playwright Christopher Chen opens at the Finborough Theatre for a four week limited season on Tuesday, 2 January 2018 (Press Nights: Thursday 4 and Friday 5 January 2018 at 7.30pm). In December 1937, in Nanking, then capital of China, occurred one of the worst atrocities of the 20th century – the rape, torture and murder of 300,000 Chinese civilians and the systematic mass execution of soldiers by the Japanese army. In 2004, Iris Chang, famed author of The Rape of Nanking, a chronicle of the massacre that brought it back into public consciousness, committed suicide at the age of 36. What begins as a standard lecture and interview with the celebrated author, soon descends into a surreal nightmare. As ghosts from her research appear, she tries desperately to find order in the midst of mental chaos. Into the Numbers by the Obie Award and Dramatist Guild’s Lanford Wilson Award winning playwright Christopher Chen, is a thrillingly innovative theatrical exploration of the philosophical and psychological implications of researching genocide, as well as the toll media saturation plays in the process.

Unlocking “A lot of the scenes are made up of one-liners which go bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, and you’ve got to be so on the ball to play them, with one ear on whether the audience are laughing in the The Mystery right places and one ear on the other actors. There’s a particular type of discipline required to do that. “Marlene, being German, had her own particular type of discipline too, and strength of character, That Is because she had to put up with a hell of a lot of ghastliness when she was touring during the war with the American forces.” Among the lesser-known facts about Kate O’Mara is that she once had a number one hit. In Finland. It’s not a fact she seems particularly keen to dwell on, but how has she coped with the musical element of the role? “I consider myself an requiredactress who can sing when requires – when – rather than a singing actress,” she says, “and like a lot of actresses who can sing, I’ve got a soprano and a basso profundo and not much in between.
