Synopsis

Theatre cannot compete with film and television as a popular art form.

If it is not to go the way of other antique, hand-made arts and become completely esoteric, it must re-discover its authenticity.

As Chiaramonte says in Theatre in Utopia, theatre is not elitist, but it is for those who love it.

I hope these plays are authentically theatrical, written in a real and new American, and I hope those who love theatre will find some pleasure here.
