Been Taken

Synopsis:
Been Taken opens on the campus of an all-women's college where John, a student at another university, meets Margaret, a student photographer, at a dance: the couple return to Margaret's room where they make love. a few days later, John opens the door to Steve, Margaret's boyfriend who coincidentally lives in the same dormitory, and who accuses John of having sex with Margaret against her will. John defends himself, knowing the accusation is false, and assuring Steve he didn't know Margaret even had a boyfriend. the scene gets ugly, but the fight is broken up just in time. Years later, John and Steve again cross paths when they are forced by circumstances to be the agents of a business deal together. John meets Steve, and his wife Jill, for a business dinner that ultimately settles old scores and jealousies.

Rootless and undecided about what to do with their lives, Nick keeps them going by selling TVs, but his plan (to which Beth reluctantly agrees) is to head off to the Midwest for a fresh start. as the play begins Nick is lounging about, drinking with their mutual friend (and his former lover) Carol, while waiting for Beth to return with more booze. When she arrives they discuss their imminent departure for Ohio but then, and abruptly, Nick takes off - alone - for parts unknown. Left in the lurch, Beth is drawn into a brief but fervid affair with a hip young house painter, Sid, who shows up to redecorate the house for the next tenants. But while Sid begins to take their relationship seriously, Beth does not, and echoing Nick, she sells the furniture (except for the colour TV which Nick got from his former employer) and vanishes without a goodbye. When Nick, having had a change of heart, returns, it is to an
