"Theatre is just marginal enough, just far enough off the radar to permit forms of tenderness and love, politics and pleasure-seeking, stories without cheap redemption, visions that do not always comfort or reassure, narratives that do not congratulate us for being so smart and sensitive and morally impeccable

Here, then, is the real mess of life - nothing has been scrubbed clean for your edification

Here is a chance to take courage from others and re-discover the individual in America" ~ Craig Lucas (ed)
