Wilder's Classic One Acts (Paperback, New)

This collection of Wilder's most famous one act plays includes, "The Long Christmas Dinner," "The Happy Journey to Trenton and Camden," "Pullman Car Hiawatha," "Queens of France," "Such Things Only Happen in Books," and "Love and How to Cure It." In these mini-masterpieces, Wilder experiments with techniques and dramatic forms he would later develop in his celebrated full-length works, "Our Town," "The Matchmaker," "The Skin of Our Teeth," and "The Alcestiad." Among these plays we encounter a first glimpse of Wilder's Stage Manager; his use of pantomime, minimal scenery, and farce; as well as his signature connection between the commonplace and the cosmic dimensions of the human experience.
