    Summary note
    This collection brings together four full-length plays from the author of the one-act comic masterpieces of All in the Timing: "Polish Joke," a young Polish-American's trip through ethnic stereotypes; "Don Juan in Chicago," in which a Renaissance innocent makes a deal with the devil, only to become a reluctant Latin lover; "Ancient History," a comedy-drama about the holy war that breaks out when two people from two very different cultures fall in love; and "The Red Address," the searing portrait of a man with a secret who is forced by tragedy into self-revelation.
