Lance Lee's plays explore the moral dilemmas we face creating lives of coherence and value today with a poetic intensity that transforms theatrical practice. In Time's Up a man and a woman treat the audience as their marriage counselors as they face the world nakedly. The last 'fox' turns the tables on a sex queen 'huntress' and her slavish 'hound' to survive as an individual in Fox, Hound, and Huntress. A thinker commits suicide in Gambits, while a veteran fire fighter confronts the same millennial emptiness saving anything that comes his way, including the man's young wife from a murder charge. Rasputin is a Socratic demi-urge whose drive for self realization destroys Russia and opens the door to the greatest modern disaster, in Rasputin. Some of these started at the Eugene O'Neill Memorial Theatre National Playwrights Conference or through support from the Rockefeller Foundation through the Office for Advanced Drama Research: both Fox, Hound and Huntress and Time's Up are included here from earlier publications.

Rumors of wrongdoing had long circulated, and in 2017, when Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey began their investigation for the New York Times, his name was still synonymous with power. But during months of confidential interviews with actresses, former Weinstein employees, and other sources, many disturbing and long-buried allegations were unearthed, and a web of onerous secret payouts and nondisclosure agreements was revealed. When Kantor and Twohey were finally able to convince sources to go on the record, a dramatic final showdown between Weinstein and the New York Times was set in motion. In the tradition of great investigative journalism, She Said tells a thrilling story about the power of truth and reveals the inspiring and affecting journeys of the women who spoke up—for the sake of other women, for future generations, and for themselves.
