Fourteen Eclectic Pieces, Half Of Which Are By Major Playwrights, Comprise The Latest Volume In Applause's Long-running Annual Celebration Of The Form. The Most Unusual Work Is A Recently Rediscovered Text By Thornton Wilder, The Wreck Of The 5:25, Anthologized Here For The First Time. This Play Alone Casts Into Clear Relief The Adventurous Nature Of Contemporary Playwrights (though The Sparsity Of Major Women Playwrights Here Is Notable). The Humana Festival, Held At The Actors' Theatre In Louisville, Has Long Been A Venue For New Plays. This Fat Collection Contains The Cream Of Two Decades' Worth Of Work. As Fewer Major Playwrights Are Represented, These Plays Are More Risky, More Adventurous, And Much More Political. By And Large, They Test The Limit
