Jordan Tannahill is an up-and-coming Toronto playwright, and Age of Minority, his first published volume, is as good an introduction to his work as any. The three solo plays that make up this collection each tackle a different controversy – homosexuals in the military, gay bullying, the death of Peter Fechter – but all showcase Tannahill's talent for engaging with social and historical issues through intense studies of character. The monologists of these plays all feel so real and natural, the reader is effortlessly drawn into their struggles and sympathizes with their plights almost immediately. And while it's unlikely that any of these plays will turn out to be timeless classics of the Canadian stage, that's mostly because it seems so certain that Tannahill will go on to do even better work in the future. For the moment, Age of Minority is a satisfying prelude of what's to come. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
