“She’s a high priestess of silence and stillness,” the director James Macdonald said. An Atlantic Theater Company and National Theater co-production of Baker’s latest play, “Infinite Life,” directed by Macdonald, is in previews now and will open on Sept. 12. “Infinite Life” also goes further than Baker’s other plays in its exploration of stillness, Macdonald said. “I’m interested in silence, I’m interested in noise, I’m interested in speed, I’m interested in stillness. To me it does feel like writing a play feels a bit like composing a piece of music.
