Prince Friedrich of Homburg
Heinrich von Kleist
The Sorrows Of Frederick
by Romulus Linney
Synopsis
Press Reviews
"An interior psychodrama about what goes on in the crumbling mind of a philosopher-king, the play is a rare example of historical drama by a contemporary dramatist that commands our attention through its intelligence and theatricality.” —The New York Times. “An enormous, major play. It moves in a series of tense, gracefully shaped scenes whose quotient of brilliant writing is staggering.” —New York Magazine. “Linney is a writer in the grand tradition, using the techniques of high theatre to deal with great ideas. His plays achieve size without pageantry through the heroism of their thoughts, the substance of their passions, the striking quality of their stylizations."
— New York Post
