Softcover. Condition: Good. 1. Proof is the winner of the 2001 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.One of the most acclaimed plays of the 1999-2000 season, Proof is a work that explores the unknowability of love as much as it does the mysteries of science.It focuses on Catherine, a young woman who has spent years caring for her father, Robert, a brilliant mathematician in his youth who was later unable to function without her help. His death has brought into her midst both her sister, Claire, who wants to take Catherine back to New York with her, and Hal, a former student of Catherine's father who hopes to find some hint of Robert's genius among his incoherent scribblings. The passion that Hal feels for math both moves and angers Catherine, who, in her exhaustion, is torn between missing her father and resenting the great sacrifices she made for him. For Catherine has inherited at least a part of her father's brilliance -- and perhaps some of his instability as well. As she and Hal become attracted to each other, they push at the edges of each other's knowledge, considering not only the unpredictability of genius but also the human instinct toward love and trust.

Softcover. Condition: New. <DIV><p>&ldquo;Brilliant . . . even more ambitious than Vogel&rsquo;s <i>How I Learned to Drive</i> . . . it covers more ground and is bolder in its storytelling. Vogel&rsquo;s language is at its most poetic, eloquent and elegiac. In fact, its vivid imagery rivals the prose style of any great American short story writer. The play sounds like it might have been adapted from a beautiful, undiscovered novella.&rdquo;?<i>New Haven Register</i></p><p>&ldquo;One of the most absorbing evenings of theatre to come along in some time.&rdquo;?<i>Variety</i></p><p>Past and present collide on a snowy Christmas Eve for a troubled family of five. Humorous and heart-wrenching, this beautifully written play proves that magic can be found in the simplest breaths of life. Combining the elements of No theatre and Bunraku with contemporary Western sensibilities, Vogel&rsquo;s <i>Ride</i> is a mesmerizing homage to the works of Thornton Wilder, including <i>Our Town</i> A moving and memorable study of the American family careening near the edge of oblivion.</p><p><b>Paula Vogel</b>&rsquo;s plays include <i>The Baltimore Waltz</i>, <i>Mineola Twins</i>, <i>Hot ?n&rsquo; Throbbing</i>, <i>Desdemona</i>, <i>And Baby Makes Seven</i>, among others. Ms. Vogel will be the resident playwright during the Signature Theatre&rsquo;s 2004&ndash;05 season dedicated to her works.

Softcover. Condition: Good. Loosely based on Euripides' tragedy , this is the prophetic tale of Hester Swane, an Irish Traveller, who attempts to come to terms with a lifetime of abandonment in a world where all whom she has loved have discarded her. Set on the bleak, ghostly landscape of the Bog of Cats, this provocative drama discloses one woman's courageous attempts to lay claim to that which is hers, as her world is torn in two. At the age of seven, Hester was abandoned on the side of the bog by her wild and fiercely independent mother, Big Josie Swane. Hester has spent a lifetime waiting for Big Josie to return. To compound her sense of abandonment, Hester's long-term lover, Carthage Kilbride, with whom she has a seven-year-old daughter, is selling her "down the river" for the promise of land and wealth through a marriage with the local big farmer's daughter. Alone and dejected, Hester has no one to whom she can turn except the local misfits, Monica Murray and the Catwoman. As ever in Carr's dramas, the small community is populated by richly woven characters from the outrageous, stultifying mother of the groom, Mrs. Kilbride, to the brutal and mercenary farmer, Xavier Cassidy. In the final moments of the action, we witness a woman provoked beyond the limits of human endurance. BY THE BOG OF CATS is a furious, uncompromising tale of greed and betrayal, of murder and profound self-sacrifice.

Softcover. Condition: New. <div>Christopher Durang has been called "Jonathan Swift's nicer, younger brother" (<i>The New York Observer</i>). His plays are known for containing hilarity at every turn and revealing social commentary in every corner. Now collected in <i>Why Torture Is Wrong, and the People Who Love Them and Other Political Plays</i> are Durang's most revealing political and social satires.<br /><br /><i>Why Torture Is Wrong, and the People Who Love Them</i> tells the story of a young woman in crisis: Is her new husband, whom she married when drunk, a terrorist? Or just crazy? Or both? Is her father's hobby of butterfly collecting really a cover for his involvement in a shadow government? Does her mother go to the theater frequently to seek mental escape, or is she just insane? Add in a minister who directs porno, and a ladylike operative whose underwear just won't stay up, and this black comedy will make us laugh all the way to the waterboarding room.<br /><br />[Durang?s] funniest play in years. A play that equals his early hits.? -John Simon, Bloomberg<br /><br />Comedic napalm, something like a cross between The Marriage of Bette and Boo and Dr. Strangelove. Durang has now joined ranks with Dario Fo. Durang is getting a lot off his chest, and off ours. . . unnervingly true and cathartic." -Bob Verini, <i>Variety</i></div>

Softcover. Condition: Good. 34917th. <DIV>With his acclaimed plays This Is Our Youth and The Waverly Gallery and his Oscar-nominated film You Can Count on Me, Kenneth Lonergan has been called "the new golden boy of stage and screen" by The New York Times. Now he returns to the stage with Lobby Hero, which has been praised as "smart, funny . [a] drama that derives its strength from Lonergan's keen ear for dialogue. One powerful tale" (New York Daily News). Lobby Hero, nominated for the Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Off-Broadway Play, tells the story of Jeff, a luckless young security guard trying to get his life together after being thrown out of the navy. But the lobby proves to be no sanctuary from the world, as Jeff is drawn into a local murder investigation involving his supervisor, a tightly wound young man called upon to bear witness against his troubled brother, and an overzealous rookie policewoman who is in over her head with her unscrupulous hero-cop partner. As Ben Brantley of The New York Times wrote, "motives come in every shade but black and white" in Lobby Hero, creating a "combustible brew of impulses."</div>
