Feedback

Synopsis:
The play poses the question of how many horrible deaths by contamination are acceptable from a power source that can feed the entire world. The greater the need for food due to a spreading world-wide draught, the more they turn up the power, the greater the number of deaths. Finally, which is worse: ancient death by starvation or modern death by Omega rays?

Reconcilliation, The

Synopsis:
The ancient battle of the sexists (Sic) fought on new grounds. Super-male chauvinist Sam Winters is determined to make Nancy Coleman - his former secretary and his present boss at Wembly Sportswear, manufacturer of women's clothes - his mistress on his terms. Ms. Coleman is determined to marry him on her terms, with a new liberated-woman marriage contract. Highly stylized, work uses rhyme, mime, shadow play, a new but inexpensive device termed "thought projection," as well as body movement close to dance. all of this has been carried out in workshop with comparative ease.
