Woodworth, Christine
- Abstract
The article focuses on the utilization of blood in several theatrical productions of Sarah Kane. It features the theatrical productions "Blasted," Phaedra's Love," and "Cleansed," which incorporate violent and bloody scenes while Kane earned critical, religious, and practical concerns. It also mentions that blood props serve as an important tool for Kane, while her works were accordingly related to neo-Jacobeans and ghosting, and were being haunted by Renaissance artists.
