Late one night over-the-edge New Yorker bursts into the apartment of her friend Joanne and rants about being sexually assaulted by a young man on the street. But as her hysterics dwindle Kate admits that the man was someone she picked up in a coffee shop because she has been so upset since her divorce. Soon Joanne opens up and confesses that Kate's ex-husband was among her many sexual conquests over the past few years, and the two women launch into a tirade about their attraction to and repulsion of men.  "John Hopkins's corrosive study of sexual degradation known as LOSING TIME has something to offend both men and women, both the political right and the left ... This Strindbergian treatment of women's rites of passage from masochism to self-respect, from dependence to independence is daring, dangerous, and easy to put down. Yet it is also an important play which, despite inevitably hostile reviews, will find an appreciative audience. Painful it is. Harrowing it is. Ugly it is. And, yes, shocking it is, even to people of unrefined sensitivities. But which of us doesn't go to the theater hoping maybe this time the play will be powerful? Well, this time it is ..." -Tish Dace, Other Stages

this collection contains two full-length plays: DAME LORRAINE, HOUSE OF SHADOWS, a long one-act: ONE LAST LOOK and two short pieces: MIRAGE and TEA ON INAUGURATION DAY. DAME LORRAINE: Picton and Dorcas...ancient now...came to this country with an internal, eternal love that made them blind to the fact that the darker aspects of the elusive Dame Lorraine found homes in the hearts of their eight sons. Their first-born and only surviving male child comes home today after twenty-seven years in prison. Picton and Dorcas await him, thinking perhaps they should never have come here. Perhaps they never should have fallen in love. DAME LORRAINE was originally produced by the Victory Gardens Theater, Chicago. 2 M, 3 F. HOUSE OF SHADOWS: Two baby-faced, would-be criminals decide to rob the home of two women of advanced age who live in contention with their past, their present, their future, and each other. The brats get more than they've bargained for...including possible great futures behind bars in Joliet. HOUSE OF SHADOWS was originally produced by the Negro Ensemble, New York. 2 M, 2 F, plus 2 boys.
