STRONG language and scenes of a disturbing nature give the impression that Conversation with a Cupboard Man is not something to be taken lightly.

Booker prizewinner Ian McEwan's short story will be brought to life by Craig Rogan at the RSC's new entertainment venue The SummerHouse in Stratford tomorrow (Friday) and Saturday.

A one-man play tells the story of the destruction of a man's soul and psyche at the hands of almost everyone he encounters. Tickets cost £10 and are available from the box office on 01789 403403.
