Welcome to a new collection of Thornton Wilder’s last plays - a series of one acts that were part of his extravagantly ambitious project to creat two one act play cycles based on the Deadly Sins and the Ages of Man. Published for the first time in a single acting edition, Wilder’s The Seven Deadly Sins presents a series of short works depicting the complexity and consequences of human frailty. Contents: The Drunken Sisters (Gluttony) Bernice (Pride)

  • Mississippi Goddamn
    Jonathan Norton
       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights. Some have them for loud gunshots.  Some for smoke.   MISSISSIPPI GODDAMN, a new play by Jonathan Norton should have one for intensity.   Granted, anyone attending a play about civil rights pioneer Medgar Evers set in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi, should expect some strife. Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

  • Fit For A Queen
    Betty Shamieh
       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...

  • The Cabala
    Thornton Wilder
    Ironic and self-ironic, unapologetically literary, urbane and heady. Reads, for the most part, like Woolf or Forster, occasionally reaching wry delights: 'When the bourgeoisie discovered that she was accepting invitations there was a tumult as of many waters.'This is a book where you get the feeling that the trees, as it were, are more important than the forest. And then, after...
