What would you say are the best 3 performances of "Straight Plays" that you've seen (not just limited to Broadway productions.)

My choices would be:

1) HAPPY DAYS (Samuel Beckett) @ CSC, NYC
2) HENRY IV (Luigi Pirandello) @ Shaw Festival, Ontario, CAN
3) PEER GYNT (H. Ibsen) @ Shaw Festival, Ontario, CAN

Do they have to be playing right now?
Find yourself a prodcution of
ANY CRAIG LUCAS play. I love him. Reckless and Blue Window are my favorite.
