MIDDLETOWN. by Will Eno (with an introduction by Gordon Lish) Middletown. was awarded the prestigious Horton Foote Prize for Promising New American Play in 2010. 'Middletown glimmers from start to finish with tart, funny, gorgeous little comments on big things: the need for love and forgiveness, the search for meaning in life, the long, lonely ache of disappointment. ' Charles Isherwood, New York Times. COMPLETENESS. by Itamar Moses (with an introduction by Doug Wright) Completeness. is a 21st-century romantic comedy about the timeless confusions of love. 'A funny, ridiculously smart new play. I haven't seen another play recentlythat so perfectly captured love - hot-blooded, fearless, fi ckle - at this stagein life. I was left with nothing but admiration. ' Jeremy Gerard, Bloomberg News. GOD'S EAR. by Jenny Schwartz (with an introduction by Edward Albee) 'This ode to love, loss and the routines of life has the economy and drywit of a Sondheim love song. Schwartz is a real talent and she is trying something ambitious. In [her] very modern way, [she is] making a rather old-fashioned case for the power of the written word. ' Jason Zinoman, New York Times.
