Eric Overmyer (1951–2026)

I watched this series with some quite long breaks in between and I think it suffered slightly because of that. But I still enjoyed it. I love the Connelly books and wanted to see the TV series. And mostly it worked and matched some of my vision. My only complaint is the swearing which I just think it would be better without. My mother would enjoy this series I think but she would be turned off by the swearing.

Strange, dream-like plays- Definitely American Experimental. More performance-art than "straight" plays- music/poetry. Picked it out of a Library book sale because it was a collection of plays I'd never heard of by an Author I hadn't known.

Original cast lists in front of the plays themselves: Jimmy Smits and Samuel L. Jackson in the first play, "Native Speech," Nathan Lane was in one, Gina Torres in another, Lauren Tom in another, and David Strathairn and Frances McDormand in yet another. show more All of them Actors who tend to pick good material- I'd go to watch them in whatever they're in.

Notsomething I'd read constantly or even expect to be performed in repertory, but helps to broaden your horizons beyond better-known playwrights. show less
