"Tragedy comes for them, and it looms larger with every passing hour. There is nothing they can do about it. And those bearing the news are likewise powerless to prevent it."

In Intruder, a family waits in nervous expectation for the mother to give birth. In Home, an old man and a stranger gather in a back garden, preparing to deliver some bad news. Both one-act plays are thrillingly intense, lyrical, and tragic in the imagist tradition. These dramas are both unconventional, original works that become breathlessly anxious as they ask profound questions about what it's like to lose a family member.

Maeterlinck's mystical, death-haunted tragedies are both mystical and cathartic.
