Vincent in Brixton
by Nicholas Wright
In 1873 an art dealer arrives
from The Netherlands to take up boarding in Brixton.
This Dutchman is twenty
year-old Vincent van Gogh, who arrives like a whirlwind and falls for the
widowed landlady of the house … and her daughter. Based on letters sent to
his brother Theo, the drama imagines the year Vincent spent in London. He is a
young man full of contradictions; shy but lustful, innocent but shocking, all
the while full of passion and drive. A passion and drive which ultimately
drove him away from his family and into poverty and the asylum. In this
award-winning play we are taken back to a period before Van Gogh produced any
of his famous works, before he became the archetypal tortured artist.
Back to a period when he was just beginning to think about painting.
