Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Contemporary American Playwrights
The theatre of today IS a theatre m which a poetic drama of high quality IS being developed, a theatre m which even the conventional prose drama is being definitely in?uenced by the inspiration of poets newly attracted to the stage. The winning of one prize this season (1938) by a drama expressing the acute realism of John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men is balanced by the winning of another prize by the sensitive and spiritually inspired Our Town, written by the poet, Thornton Wilder.
