About
Richard Foreman, a six-time Obie Award winner and one of the most influential figures in American drama, is widely considered the foremost avant-garde playwright in the world today. This new collection of Foreman's plays includes Eddie Goes To Poetry City (Seattle and New York versions), The Mind King, Samuel's Major Problems, My Head Was a Sledgehammer and I've Got the Shakes. The directions included with each play elucidate the playwright's intent and crystallize his philosophy of theater. In addition, an unannotated version of My Head Was a Sledgehammer provides a look at the powerful language of Foreman's theater, apart from stage directions that may limit one's interpretation. . Filled with Foreman's jolting, quirky humor, an obsession with exploring the mind's slippery territories, and a faith in new worlds accessible only through language, these new plays are among Richard Foreman's most affecting work.
