Question

what is the best contemporaneous play and who is the best contemporaneous playwright (playwriter) in your country?

please put the link of the play

Answer 1

Canadian playwright ... I'd have to say Dan Needles and his creation of "Wingfield Farm".

He created a series of one-man plays about a "captain of industry [who] trades his pinstripe suit for overalls and retreats to a hundred acre farm, ... attempt[ing] to embrace a less complicated world".

What's even funnier is that I can see my cousins and their neighbours (still farming in Ontario) depicted *so* clearly, even though the author has never lived in my part of the country.

There are six in the series now.

I don't see any sites that actually provide the score but, by googling "Wingfield Farm", I got:

- the actor's page - http://www.execulink.com/~lmjost/

- descriptions of the plays - http://www.wingfieldfarm.ca/plays.htm

- bios of those involved - http://www.wingfieldfarm.ca/bio.htm

- and a whole host of others!
