Steven Dietz is one of America's most widely produced and published
contemporary playwrights. Since 1983, his forty-plus plays have
been seen at over one hundred regional theatres in the United
States, as well as Off-Broadway, and in eighteen foreign countries
and ten languages. He is a two-time winner of the Kennedy Center
Fund for New American Plays Award, as well as a two-time finalist
for the Steinberg New Play Award. He has received the PEN USA West
Award in Drama, the Edgar Award for Drama, and the Yomuiri Shimbun
Award (the Japanese "Tony.") While Dietz is best-known for his
adult plays, he has also written important plays for younger
audiences. This anthology gathers four of them-The Rememberer,
Still Life with Iris, Honus & Me, and Jackie & Me. Though
diverse in subject matter, the plays share several hallmarks of
Dietz's writing, including realistic dialogue, strong protagonists,
an emphasis on memory and magic, a blue-collar sensibility filled
with often loopy humor, and a witty and intelligent playing with
the boundaries of reality. Setting the plays in context are essays
about Dietz and his creative process, his success in working with
other theatre professionals, and the profession of theatre for
youth. This introduction to Steven Dietz's work and anthology of
plays will be a valuable resource for teachers, directors, writers,
and students.
