Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This collection brings back into print one of Craig Lucas' best known and enduring works, A Prelude to a Kiss, which was both a hit on Broadway and a popular motion picture. Frank Rich in The New York Times wrote about Prelude, "It is rare to find a play so suffused with sorrow that sends one home so high". Also included are Missing Persons, "a truly intelligent play, one that is literary and heartfelt, beautifully written...a well-crafted, moving story, a dramatic rarity in these or any times",(New York Post) and Three Postcards, an offbeat and uniquely imaginative free form musical play.
