Deathbed
by Mark Schultz

"…a coolly thoughtful and taut meditation by the stylish playwright Mark Schultz…Mr. Schultz writes with a miniaturist's sense of scale. Following the lead of Mamet and Albee, he prunes his dialogue to one- and two-word sentences (pronouns are the first to go) and builds deceptively complex exchanges out of short, punchy scenes.“ —The New York Times. ”A moving comedy-drama blessed with a splendid production…Schultz creates a quirky, occasionally funny threnody on the painful uncertainties of life and the lure and mystery of death.“ —Backstage. ”Shrewd and funny.“ —Village Voice. ”[Schultz] has a biting disregard for self-pity and a paradoxically spectacular grasp on grief."
