Description

The Tony Award-winning play that focuses on the meaning of art (in the form of a solid white painting) as well as the meaning of friendship, to both the man who bought the painting and the two friends who come to see it.

Starting in 1987, she began a successful career writing her own plays. Conversations after a Burial, won the Molière Award for Best Author. She translated Kafka's Metamorphosis for Roman Polanski and was nominated for a Molière Award for Best Translation. Winter Crossing won the 1990 Molière for Best Fringe Production, and The Unexpected Man enjoyed successful productions in England, France, Scandinavia, Germany and New York.
