Book Reviews of Telling Tales and Other New One-Act Plays

Book Review: A Good Textbook
Summary: 5 Stars


I used "Telling Tales" for a drama class and almost all of the plays were well-received and generated good discussions. The book had a good blend of famous playwrights and unknowns, comedies and dramas, and short plays and lengthier ones. My favorie plays were Terrence McNally's "Andre's Mother" and Richard Greenberg's "The Author's Voice." I wish editor Mark Lane would put out a second volume of one-act plays.

Summary of Telling Tales and Other New One-Act Plays
