An Oak Tree is a bold, absurdist, comic play for two actors - one of them different at each performance - about loss, suggestion and the power of the mind.

This Student Edition is published with a commentary and notes by Seda Ilter, which explore Tim Crouch's notion of audience and their role in theatre; possibilities of transformation and the role of visual art in theatre; the implosion of the real and fictional; and the liminal dramaturgy of Crouch's plays; as well as how this experimental play works in performance.

The edition also includes an interview with Tim Crouch, which sheds further light on his philosophy and process.

Tim Crouch is a UK theatre artist based in Brighton. Since 2003, he was been writing plays in which he performs and takes responsibility for their production. Crouch works with a number of associates and collaborators to produce his writing. His work includes My Arm, An Oak Tree, ENGLAND and The Author. He also writes plays for children and occasionally works as a director. Seda Ilter is a lecturer in Theatre and Performance Studies at Birkbeck, University of London, UK. She is the author of Mediatized Dramaturgy: The Evolution of Plays in the Media Age (Methuen Drama, 2021) and she works on theoretical and aesthetic implications of new technologies and mediatized culture in theatre, new writing and modes of textuality in contemporary performance and new dramaturgies.
