Believing that lively, contentious debate is the heart and soul of
a dinner party, a domestic artist and perfect hostess has invited
an assortment of opinionated personalities to share a surreal meal.
The guests at this exquisite feast of food and argument confront
the global implications of September 11 and beyond in an urgent,
impassioned, and hilarious work that was applauded at Actors
Theatre of Louisville's Humana Festival and Off Broadway.
Timely and resonant, The Argument chronicles the arc of a
relationship between a man and a woman with bracing humor, passion,
and fury. What happens when two people who say they love each other
fight over something so precious that they reach a point of no
return?
This powerful anthology brings together reflective and raw plays by
American playwrights surrounding the psychic and political
boundaries of the many faces and shadows of terrorism. Allan

modern terrors, and underscores how theatre forms a unique contour
to social and philosophical thought on terrorism. With a foreword
from Robert Brustein, the anthology features: Break of Noon by Neil
LaBute 7/11 by Kia Corthron Omnium Gatherum by Theresa Rebeck and
Alexandra Gersten-Vassilaros Columbinus by PJ Paparelli and Stephen
Karam Why Torture is Wrong, and the People Who Love Them by
Christopher Durang
