A black comedy of the very darkest pitch, Martin McDonagh’s Tony-nominated The Pillowman takes place in a nameless police state, where the interrogation of the writer Katurian is the starting point for an examination of the nasty fairy tales that he crafts, and some unsolved child murders that might be related to them. Intense and unremitting, there’s a whodunit here, with a lot of creepiness. Not for the faint of heart.
