Here for your delectation is theSPECTACULAR & RARE-------------THREE PLAYS FROM THE YALE SCHOOL OF DRAMA, Edited and with an Introduction and Postscript by John Gassner, Foreword by F. Curtis Canfield. THIS IS A SIGNED AND INSCRIBED (by John Gassner) EDITION!!Those who love the theatre--both those who work in it and those who still go to it--can be grateful for John Gassner. Whether he wrote for the New York Times or a periodical, his reports and critiques were always well-considered, thoroughly documented, and wisely phrased. Even occasional pieces, written four decades ago, still make interesting reading, though the plays and players they celebrate have long since been forgotten. More than that, though, those critical analyses constitute invaluable records of the period.On April 2, 1967, John Gassner died at New Haven.The John Gassner Memorial Playwriting Award Competition fosters new playwrights and scripts through this important competition established by Molly Gassner, wife of theatre historian John Gassner. The Award was created in 1967 to honor the late John Gassner (1903-1967) for his lifetime dedication to all aspects of professional and academic theatre.
