A time to die and A time to live: Two short plays

A TIME TO DIE might be regarded as a Sophocles Variation, inspired as it is by the ANTIGONE of Sophocles, and A TIME TO LIVE as a Euripides Variation being inspired by the ANDROMACHE of Euripides. This edition brings both into the twenty first century. Some comments on twentieth century productions “Both are fascinating.”Kevin Kelly “I experienced a powerful grip of terror and pity… A TIME TO DIE carries its message for today with enormous poetry.”Lee Baxandall “They are so witty and so young.”George Tabori “A rejuvenating experience.”Joseph Chaikin “Nothing that I know of in recent theater touches quite the moral depth of these plays.”Tom F Driver “Steeped in human passions on many levels, A TIME TO LIVE is a challenging play, an evocative play, and finally, a noble play.”Stanley Richards
