Jessica Lange, BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS in a TV show, AMERICAN HORROR STORY. In her acceptance last evening Ms. Lange said "it's more and more rare to come up with something that is beautifully written."
it was the writing that brought us all to something transcendant.
God knows, I've seen that play a dozen times,
saw it with josh when he was 16,
saw it at a friend of his's high school,
saw it somewhere else can't remember.
high schools do it 'cause it's not only cheap and easy to stage,
but it's so easily written,
even kids shine in it, and when they play,
the older people, it's charming, but it always works.,
There's Beckett and O'Neil and Pinter and Williams, but this play,
so almost old fashioned and quaint,
is so timeless and so beautifully written you hardly realize someone,
is cutting you with a razor blade."

it was the writing that invited the ingenuity of the director,it was the writing that brought us all to something transcendant.
