"New vaccines for diseases prevalent in developed countries could be priced very differently," he says.

...Afraid of Virginia Woolf (also smartly revived this year). In Seascape, the beach banter of an aging couple is interrupted by the appearance of two visitors from the sea: reptiles, the first in their class to reach land.

It's a lovely day to do nothing, but that's not really an option."I get very little time entirely alone," he says, moments before six people appear in the living room...
...have been introduced to the basics of sexual reproduction that have allowed our species to survive for millions of years. But, let’s be honest, sex is about more than procreation, and emotions are always, inevitably, involved. Whatever you do with regards to sex, make sure you treat others with integrity and respect...
