I just read "How I learned to Drive" and "The Shape of Things", both very good!

And yeah anyone who hasn't read Angels in America should run out and buy it right NOW!

Just got through Frozen and enjoyed it a lot. Very poetic, in style and format. Interested in thinking how it could be staged and performed based on how it was written on the page.

Also, recently read The Death of Dr. Browne by Tony Kushner and I LOVED it. All the characters were so well rounded and varied, akin to Angels. Kushner's a god!

I have to second Mynameinlights on Waiting For Godot - and add Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead(or anything by Tom Stoppard).

Raised in Captivity by Nicky Silver. You will laugh out loud!

Also: Homebody/Kabul (Kushner), Closer (Marber), After the Fall (Miller)

And I just saw Golda's Balcony yesterday. You go Tovah!

Which plays do you guys think work better on paper than on stage, and vice versa?

Death of a Salesman. I know most people probably disagree, but I think the narrative arc and structure works better on the page than onstage.
