...play produced off Broadway in 1981; one can see why she was encouraged to develop it to full length for Broadway. Calvin and Ginny may be symbolic representations, but they are also potent characters in their own right. The student's basic gentleness makes his rage, when it surfaces, all the more terrible to behold. The teacher's harassed decency makes the brisk cheer with which she tries to sell deceit to her self and her students the more poignant...

The scenes define a distinct style of politics in the world today, politics in a ski mask, violence dramatizing an unappeasable rage. Faceless, and morally depthless, the zealots crash truck bombs into their targets in Beirut or Tyre, go night riding with the Salvadoran death squads, or set the timers for the I.R.A. One sees their work-the almost daily deposits of bodies in the roads of Central America, for example...
