Purple Heart & The Infidel - Two Plays
Bruce Norris Price: $15.95
In Purple Heart, Carla, a Vietnam War widow deep in drink and depression, is living with a troubled son and her controlling mother
One day a stranger arrives at the door, a soldier with one hand who is seemingly connected to her late husband and comes to offer condolences to the grieving family
The soldier's mysterious visit is solved in graphic and bloody detail at the end of the play. Norris uses these quirky and flawed characters to provide a humorous yet very dark view of war and the human condition
Loosely based on a true story, The Infidel tells of a charismatic and well-respected state Supreme Court justice who is faced with disciplinary action after his out-of-control affair with a young Latina junior staffer
He confers with his friend and attorney as he examines the consequences of his behavior and tries to judge the most difficult case of his life-his own
With dark irony and sharp, cutting dialogue, Bruce Norris explores sexual
obsession and the legislation of human behavior
