Rezensionen

I read three of the six plays:

The Country House, by Donald Margulies. This was ok, but theater pieces about theater people just don't excite me.

Dinner with the Boys, by Dan Lauria. I liked this dark comedy about a most interesting dinner party. Of the plays in this collection, this is the one I'd most like to see performed.

Our Lady of Kibeho by Katori Hall. Based on real events, this is about schoolgirls in Rawanda having visions of Mary. This one made me head to the Web to find out more about the event.

The other three plays are:

Mala Hierba by Tanya Saracho, inspired by Latin American culture. I may get the book again to read this one.

When January Feels Like Summer by Cori Thomas, set in Central Harlem. Not interested in this

Year of the Rooster by Eric Dufault. A comic play about cockfighting, connections, and clawing your way to the top. I don't think I want to ever read this.
