Amazing, timely plays, May 9 2007
By Elizabeth Ware - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Six Plays (Hardcover)
I am a theater director, and I directed two of the plays in this volume. One (Air Raid) is about civilians caught in the middle of a war. The other (This Music Crept by Me Upon the Waters) is about people trying to find meaning in their lives, but ultimately just going along with the status quo.Air Raid was written in the thirties, a reponse to Picasso's painting Guernica, wich was a reponse to the bombing of a Basque village. But it could just as easily be about Iraq.
This Music was written in the fifties, about post-war Americans and Brits with plenty of disposable income. Is reads like a condemnation of 21st century society, talking about environmentalism wile driving an SUV and living in a 5000 square foot house.
Great writer, great plays.
