From the Publisher:

From the Preface by Robert Simonson, editor of Playbill on Line: "Martin Denton is putting new comedies and dramas out where directors, producers, artistic directors, and theatergoers can find them. More than that, he is reinvesting the long moribund world of play publishing with vision and enthusiasm. New plays, it seems are new once more."
