I am very grateful to Smith and Kraus for making these uncut versions of two of my earliest plays available. They are essential to the full story of who I am.  Plays, especially produced plays, have a way of getting "lost." So much happens to a text in the stress and strain and trial and error of production that the final "published" version often differs significantly from the play the author originally wrote.  Indeed, my first play, And Things That Go Bump In the Night, was cut and re-written so savagely and so frantically during rehersals and previews -- with my full acquiesence at the time (there is no one more terrified or malleable than a first-time playwright) and to my subsequent regret (there is no one wiser than a seasoned playwright) -- that what opened at the Royale Theatre and was published was not the play I had set out to write.

Spite for Spite is a new American translation, originally commissioned by the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego, of the 17th century Spanish masterpiece El desden con el desden by Agustin Moreto, Calderon's most successful disciple. One of the most popular comedies in the classical Spanish repertoire, this witty battle of the sexes has been translated for the first time from the original Golden Age Castilian into clear and playable English verse, maintaining all the intricate rhyme schemes, elaborate wordplay, romantic poetry, and inspired foolery of the original. 
When a man who finds himself irresistible falls for a woman who thinks herself immovable, the verbal and emotional fireworks fly, as he decides to woo her precisely by not wooing her, to fight fire with fire, or in this case, ice with ice - disdain with disdain, spite for spite. 
With an introduction, bibliography, and full textual notes for actors and scholars by the translator, and original settings for the songs by composer Carl Smith.

Don't look now, but...what dramatic form would you expect the French to impose on English history? Bedroom farce, of course. Good Queen Anne and the Churchills, Winston's ancestors, are here in Eugene Scribe's nineteenth-century classic, riding high as the Duke and Duchess of Marlborough. While the Duke is struggling against the armies of Louis XIV, the Duchess is trying to inveigle Abigail Churchill's beau into bed, not knowing the girlish Queen wants him too. It's a perfect opportunity for the wily politician Bolingbroke. As seen through French eyes, these English historical characters would never recognize themselves. In fact, they'd be shocked!

Anyone for Venice? Yes, lots of people actually: pilgrims, con artists, gamblers, phonies, policemen, waiters, businessmen -- all caught up in the Carnival, dropping in at the coffee shop for a cuppa, for java was big in 1750.
