I remember buying this at Shakespeare & Co. something like 8 years ago, and there was a kitty cat lying under the ladder downstairs with me in the drama section.I can't remember how I heard of the play, but I understand why I was drawn to it. I used to think the best were "issue" dramas, "concept" plays, and this is one for sure: a woman is kidnapped by "Operation Retrieval" from a clinic before her abortion procedure, and confined for months to prevent her from going back.I think I waited so long to read it, though, because some ideas lose everything the minute you put a lot of words to them. How could this idea be sustained for a play? How could it possibly end? But it gained some traction and the longer scenes occasionally blossomed. The scene on Keely's birthday was very kind. In the end, it did manage to surprise me.The coat hanger was good. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
