[Wright's play is not exactly a docudrama. But between 1873 and 1874, Van Gogh, then in his early 20s, did indeed live at 87 Hackford Road SW9 in London. He worked in a branch of an Amsterdam uncle's art gallery.] I did a lot of research, both in England and Holland, ... We know that there was some sort of sexual arrangement.
