This, the author's first full-length play, was produced in 1958 and is seen by Martin Esslin, as a complex poetic image in which the author expressed the totality of his own existential anxiety. The play can be variously interpreted as an allegory of the pressures of conformity, as a morality about death, as a metaphor for the process of growing up - or indeed as a blend of all three.
