Product Information
- Intimate exchanges, a related series of plays totalling eight scripts, is a fascinating, often hilarious, new concept in stage management and character development.
- The author even describes it as "a piece of theatrical lunacy".
- Remarkably, this series of plays can be acted by just two actors, although more could be used if desired.
- The plays begin with a woman faced with a small, fairly trivial decision.
- Should she resist having the first cigarette of the day before 6pm?
- On some nights her willpower is strong enough, on others it isn't.
- The two quite separate chains of events that result from her choice are published under Volume I and Volume II.
- In each, at the end of the first scene, another character has to make a further decision, this time of a slightly more important nature.
- As each scene ends further and more crucial choices still have to be made, culminating in a major course of action.
- Thus each play is a single strand of a much larger web of interconnecting scenes.
