The Only Time I'll Get

Im Not Suggesting That The Play Is Without Fault; All Of My Plays Are Imperfect, Im Rather Happy To Say-it Leaves Me Something To Do.

A Playwright, Especially A Playwright Whose Work Deals Very Directly With An Audience, Perhaps He Should Pay Some Attention To The Nature Of The Audience Response - Not Necessarily To Learn Anything About His Craft, But As Often As Not Merely To Find Out About The Temper Of The Time, What Is Being Tolerated, What Is Being Permitted.

The One Living Playwright I Admire Without Any Reservation Whatsoever Is Samuel Beckett. I Have Funny Feelings About Almost All The Others.

Art Has An Obligation To Offend

And The West, Encumbered By Crippling Alliances, And Hardened With A Morality Too Rigid To Accommodate Itself To The Swing Of Events, Must ..... Eventually ..... Fall.
