The play is, in effect, the main character's monologue,  for material that might otherwise be dramatized comes to us through  her narration as she tells us of a party thrown by herself and her  husband, and events leading up to it.  Carrie and those with whom she  is closest are of a generation unable to connect with one another with  any ease, and therein lies their problem. Monologues are what they do  best.    THE EURIPIDEADS is an evening of theatre comprised of two works, Time  Went By, But Slowly, a sendup of "Alcestis" by Euripides, and  Wollicott's Traveling Rabbit's Foot Minstrels, a sendup of his  "Iphigenia In Taurus". The plays can be mounted individually, but they  benefit from a mounting in tandem. They then provide an evening's  entertainment that means to put the most central presuppositions about  the world held by the Ancients in the hands of Generation Xers - among  these presuppositions, that order was available in the cosmos, that no  matter how capricious the gods might be there is always reason to  believe in justice in the world, that salvation at the hands of the  gods was always a possibility.

<p>We are delighted to celebrate fifteen years of publishing with this collection of twenty amazing one-act plays. Here you will discover astonishing, fresh, and sadly under-appreciated one-act play scripts. These plays are a perfect tonic for those tired of seeing the same old things produced endlessly. These plays positively bristle with wit, life and ingenuity. This book includes plays perfect for high schools, middle schools, elementary schools, and many that appeal to more mature audiences. Looking for variety? Some of the subjects covered in the collection include; bumbling detectives, school shooters, God eating lunch with (and taunting) an advertising rep, schoolboy werewolves, a dark musical about Rumpelstiltskin, a tense standoff between poachers and a game warden, an adaptation of the Brothers Grimm, barflies in Washington State, a theater company held hostage, a mysterious suicide, a man who believes himself to be Humphrey Bogart, an authentic glimpse at 15th Century Mexico, a philosophy-quoting diner waitress, speaking ill of the dead and getting away with it, a hip-hop wannabe named PaN-TeeZ, a look at 150 years of racism in the Deep South, a proper British couple who find an uninvited clown in their drawing room, a stripper caring for her aging mother, a man coming home to find he has somehow gained a son and lost his wife, and a look at the life of Tristan Tzara and the Dada movement. Featuring the work of twenty amazing playwrights: Alex Odom, Hope McIntyre, Fraser MacFarlane, Lewis Gardner, Dan Roth, J.
