In an informal interview, Durang said he was inspired to write Stye of the Eye because of the effusive praise the critics ladled onto what he felt was a pretentiously obscure and hateful play. But Durang let his perhaps jealous anger get away from him, and so occasionally the satire sinks to the level of characters shouting at the audience, "See! This is a symbol!
