Title: Absured or juvenile?
Review: Some of the later plays are interesting but I think it was a mistake to include his earlier work.I have heard of `theatre of the absurd' but this is theatre of the juvenileTo be fair, there are some glimpses of something more grown up, such as the referenced to relativism in `Titanic' but that was written when he was slightly older, under the tutelage of an expert dramatist.Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You was a good reminder of how toxic pre-Vatican II Catholicism was but the play was spoilt by the playwright's comments, at the end, on how to cast it. If that play was that good, it would speak for itself.There was something Kafkaesque about The Ac tor's Nightmare' and Beyond Therapy was the one really good play that I would pay to go and watch.
