Das stetige Erstarken der Familien der flugfähigen Drachen ist der abtrünnigen menschengestaltigen Linie der Wolkenfelser seit langem ein Dorn im Auge. Weil alle direkten Versuche, den großen Drachen zu schaden, durch Lady Tessa erstickt werden, versuchen Sie, die beiden Königreiche des Clans gegeneinander auszuspielen und Tessas Reich von innen zu zersetzen. Als sie die menschliche Gefolgschaft, die Familie des Herrn des Weihergutes, überfallen, ahnen sie nicht, dass sie ihr eigenes Ende einläuten, erst recht nicht, wer es ihnen bereiten wird.

Distinguished theater critic John Lahr brings unique perspective to the life of Arthur Miller, the playwright who almost single-handedly propelled twentieth-century American theater into a new level of cultural sophistication. Organized around the fault lines of Miller’s life—his family, the Great Depression, the rise of fascism, Elia Kazan and the House Committee on Un-American Activities, Marilyn Monroe, Vietnam, and the rise and fall of Miller’s role as a public intellectual—this book demonstrates the synergy between Arthur Miller’s psychology and his plays.

Had I become disenchanted with the form I had once fallen so madly in love with as a pubescent, pimple-faced suburban homo with braces? Maybe theatre was like an all-consuming high school infatuation that now, ten years later, I saw as the closeted balding guy with a beer gut he’d become. There were of course those rare moments of transcendence that kept me coming back. But why did they come so few and far between?

Chi si ritira dal mondo, cosiddetto sociale, è il soggetto di questo bozzetto drammatico, dal titolo “Assente”. Tratta la vita di un individuo che, vicino all'età di venticinque anni, si rende conto del "vuoto" che la vita gli sta proponendo in maniera alquanto ingiustificata. È questa nuova condizione vitale che egli non sa più gestire, e che lo rende "distaccato" da tutto quello che prima lo attirava. L'antica Illusione (di quando aveva mille speranze, mille certezze, mille sogni) cede ora il posto ad una Delusione smisurata quanto la sua disperata nostalgia verso un Tempo andato e che non riesce più a ritrovare.

Unlike conventional how-to manuals that merely scratch the surface, The Story of The Story delves into the ethos of storytelling. It emphasizes that, just as reading a jumbo jet manual does not prepare one to fly, reading about storytelling mechanics does not prepare one to write. Something more is needed.

August Wilson wrote a series of ten plays celebrating African American life in the 20th century, one play for each decade. No other American playwright has completed such an ambitious oeuvre. Two of the plays became successful films, Fences, starring Denzel Washington and Viola Davis; and Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, starring Viola Davis and Chadwick Boseman. Fences and The Piano Lesson won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama; Fences won the Tony Award for Best Play, and years after Wilson’s death in 2005, Jitney earned a Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play.
