New Cartwright Redefines Brilliant

A longtime fan of Cartwright's plays, I wasn't sure what to expect with this new one, but this is THE BEST PLAY I HAVE READ IN 3 YEARS!! I am a director of new plays and read 10 plays a week...this is absolutely brilliant. The combination of poetry, metaphor, action, character re-definition - - it's his best work yet, and crucial for any one writing plays. I can't rave enough about it.
