by Caryl Churchill
Synopsis
A fascinating meditation on human cloning, personal identity and the conflicting claims of nature and nurture.
Bernard thought he was an only child.
One day he learns the shocking truth: he is just one of a number of clones.
Together, he and his father confront epic questions of identity, intimacy and belonging.
Caryl Churchill's play A Number pushes the boundaries of science and ethics with an astonishing twist on the dynamics of the father/son relationship.
