A collection of plays by multi-Tony Award-winning playwright and bookwriter Terrence McNally, titled SELECTED WORKS: A MEMOIR IN PLAYS, is available today, July 7, 2015.

The official description of Terrence McNally's SELECTED WORKS: A MEMOIR IN PLAYS is as follows:

"Since his first play, And Things That Go Bump in the Night, which premiered in 1965, McNally has proven himself to be a trailblazing figure and unique voice in American theater, known for his exploration of gay themes and his chronicling of America's changing social attitudes over the past fifty years. His thirty-three plays, nine musicals, three operas, and seven scripts for film and television, are a testament to his astonishing commitment to writing.

"In Selected Plays, for the very first time, McNally collects a set of eight plays that he considers the most important of his oeuvre, including the Tony-nominated Mothers and Sons and the critically acclaimed And Away We Go, neither of which have been previously published. Introducing each play with a personal essay that recounts an anecdote or discusses an aspect of the play that proceeds it, McNally himself frames his own life in the theater.

"Selected Plays is a landmark publication, a memoir in plays from one of America's most highly regarded and best-loved playwrights."
