For Whom the Southern Belle Tolls is a hilarious parody of Tennessee Williams' The Glass Menagerie. The plot of 'dentity Crisis revolves around the daughter of a family who is having a nervous breakdown - her problem is that she can't keep straight the identities of everyone else because they all keep changing who they are. In Wanda's Visit, Jim and Marsha face difficulties after 13 years of marriage. An old friend of Jim's named Wanda unexpectedly visits, disrupting things even more. And in The Actor's Nightmare, an accountant named George Spelvin is mistaken for an actor's understudy and forced to perform in a play for which he doesn't know any of the lines.Christopher Durang is an American playwright known for works of outrageous and often absurd comedy.
