*About:* David Hare's intensely clear-sighted and compassionate play, about
reconnected lovers who consider resurrecting their relationship, won *The
Guardian's* coveted Best New Play Award.

*"There are times in the theatre when you suddenly find yourself in the
grip of silence, There is no fidgeting or coughing, no shifting about in
seats: the audience's attention is so tense it is almost palpable. This is
because it is both thrilling and dangerous: a fight to the death, or the
dawning of salvation. David Hare's play Skylight, is punctuated by such
moments. They are the signs that a dramatist of the first rank is writhing
at full stretch, in complete command of his material, undogmatic and
unafraid, unforgiving and compassionate."* - *Sunday Times*
