The Play is the Thing: Day Four

My ambition may be getting the better of me. I can see it all coming together and it's real and there is a vision of it on the stage that is astounding me. But I have not formal guide, no theatre training or geekyness to fall back upon. So I'm looking at plays that I've read. Some I've seen produced, some not. Who do I find speaking to me? Tony Kushner. I'm reading his Playwrite's Notes for Angels in America and they are making sense to me. Not that I see That's Why I Hold On as anywhere near in the same league. I mean, let's just get a grip. I'm playing t-ball while watching game tapes of the World Series.

But if you're going to find heroes 

you might as well pick the best:

Tony Kushner, Eugene O'Neill, David Mamet.
