The Oberon Anthology of Contemporary American Plays: Volume One – by Bathsheba Doran, Itamar Moses, Will Eno, Jenny Schwartz
Theatre Communications Group (TCG) is pleased to announce the U.S. release of The Oberon Anthology of Contemporary American Plays: Volume One edited by Mark Subias, published by Oberon Books (London). This new volume brings together plays from four of the best young artists on the contemporary American playwriting scene. Volume One is introduced by Andr Bishop, Artistic Director of the Lincoln Center Theater, and each play is introduced by well-known and critically acclaimed writers.
The four plays in this volume [are] fresh, original and distinctive. Each is verbally deft, and delights in language and its power to entertain, disturb and just plain dazzle The United States is in a golden age of American playwriting whether we acknowledge it or not and the four talented writers in this volume strongly attest to that. ― Andr Bishop (from his Introduction)
