I think that when a play makes you want to read it aloud, makes you want to perform it, to stage it to cast it, to produce it, that means it is a very good play. There are many plays that read well. But a play that gets under your skin and you know you won't fully know it until you do it, and you have a desire to know it, now that is the highest recommendation of a play. Mac Wellman's stuff is like that. These plays are like that. I know I will do them someday.

So Mr. Wellman doesn't really believe in this thing called plot. The results are at times fascinating, meandering, rambling and oddly apocalyptic. While both plays exist on the same plane and share a character, the plays can exist without the others.

I love drama. Theatre, that is.
