A first volume of four plays from the Amercian playwright whose
play Dying City was a critical and popular success at the Royal
Court Theatre in May 2006. * Other People is set in New York among
a twenty-something generation whose lives and hopes are blighted by
disillusionment born of affluence and impotence in the face of the
unknown. The play premiered in March 2000. * Where Do We Live, set
in a post-September 11 world, asks to what extent New York's
liberal multicultural society is under threat and how much we
should care about the state in which our neighbours live. * The
Coming World moves from Shinn's usual Manhattan environment to the
coast of New England, where Dora is persuaded, against her better
judgement, to help her ex, Ed, in a desperate attempt to escape
from spiralling debt. Produced at the Soho Theatre in 2001. * Dying
City shifts between 2004 and 2005 - the eve of one brother's
departure for Iraq and the day that his twin brother visits his now
widowed sister-in-law. The play premiered at the Royal Court
Theatre in May 2006 to great critical acclaim. The books also
features an introduction by the author.
