...inner, intellectual freedom, and Man "B" representing emotionality and the virtues of physical freedom, are confined and gradually deprived of their clothing by a giant hand. The two men's approaches to the Hand differ: one fights and the other acquiesces, but in the end, both lose. David Starr Klein as the rationalist is impressive; with cool, clipped prose he contrasts nicely with Joe Volpe's frenetic Man "B." And the Hand is great: mxde of foam rubber and looking about three hundred pounds heavy, it is the personification of imperialism...
...this personification of the outside power is lost in the next play, Beckett's "Act without Words II." The outside power has become a snout-nosed prod ("the Goad") that rattles on stage to awake first Klein, then Volpe, who like wind-up tops proceed to go through their daily routine.

The patients had all undergone breast surgery already and were suffering recurrences of cancer. Klein injected a serum containing tuberculin-a substance that rouses the body to counterattack-directly into the women's cancerous...
Though much study and testing remain to be done before immunotherapy can become an anticancer weapon, Klein's results indicate that the effort is likely to prove worthwhile. All five of the women are still alive two years after treatment began and have shown improvement in varying degrees...
