Opis

In The End of Me Old Cigar, leading media figures get together for not such shocking reasons as might it first appear. A Sense of Detachment satirizes our heartless, profiteering society, while defending timeless human values. A Place Calling Itself Rome is a powerful reworking of Shakespeare's Coriolanus. The television play Jill and Jack is a comic gem that satirizes the conventions of its own genre, while also being a close study of sexual warfare.
