Cloud Nine is an inventive, surrealistic and entertaining look at sexual repression and sexual role conditioning.
The first act takes place in Victorian Africa, suggeting the parallel between colonial and sexual repression. Clive, the whtie man, imposes his ideals on his family and the natives. Betty, his wife, is played by a man because she wants to be what men want her to be; and Joshua, their black servant, is played by a white man because he wants to be what whites want him to be.
The second act is set in London in 1979--in the changing sexuality of our own time. The characters, who have ages only twenty-five years, have become more real to themselves. With Cloud Nine Caryl Churchill points out that patterns repeat themselves, men suffer as well as women, and our identities are warped by conforming to "unnatural norms".
Includes an introduction by Caryl Churchill. This edition incorporates a number of the text changes made for the New York production.
