A Letter from the President

Dear Subscriber:

A lot happened in 1936. Jesse Owens triumphed at the Berlin Olympics. Edward VIII abdicated to marry Wallis Simpson. The Hindenburg took its maiden voyage. And Dramatists Play Service was founded by the Dramatists Guild of and an intrepid group of agents. Starting as a small organization that handled only amateur licensing and published acting editions—only two of those in our first year—the Play Service has since blossomed into a leader in our industry, handling both professional and amateur productions and publishing over 100 plays a year.

To note DPS’s 80th anniversary, we have put together a collection of eight plays, selecting one definitive title published in each decade of our history. With over 4,000 titles in our catalogue, the selection process was not an easy task! But the eight plays we decided on celebrate the breadth, quality, and diversity of not just our catalogue, but of theater history in the . To accompany each play, a notable person in the theater has written an all-new introduction, and I can tell you that the introductions themselves make for wonderful reading. The Anniversary Editions of these plays will be offered exclusively as a beautiful limited-edition boxed set. The collection includes YOU CAN’T TAKE IT WITH YOU by and George S. Kaufman, introduced by Hart’s son Christopher; by , with an introduction by DPS playwright ; by , introduction by DPS playwright ; THE EFFECT OF GAMMA RAYS ON MAN-IN-THE-MOON MARIGOLDS by , introduction by DPS playwright Luke Yankee; CRIMES OF THE HEART by , introduction by play agent Gilbert Parker; SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION by , introduction by DPS playwright Baker; by Lynn Nottage, introduction by director ; and ALMOST, MAINE by John Cariani, introduction by actors Justin Hagan and Miriam Shor and producer Jack Thomas. Celebrate 80 years of the Play Service in this collection, which makes a terrific gift for any theater-lover, or a lovely addition to your own shelf.

At the 2016 , we were happy to again represent all four of the Best Play nominees: Mike Bartlett’s KING CHARLES III, Danai Gurira’s ECLIPSED, Stephen Karam’s , and Florian Zeller’s THE FATHER. Other notable plays acquired last season include HEISENBERG by Simon Stephens; by Martin McDonagh; George Orwell’s 1984, in a new adaptation by Robert Icke and Duncan Macmillan; BUTLER by Richard Strand; INCOGNITO by Nick Payne; and A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE GYNECOLOGIC ONCOLOGY UNIT AT MEMORIAL SLOAN KETTERING CANCER CENTER OF by Halley Feiffer. As always, we’re very pleased to welcome new to the catalogue, including Sarah Burgess (DRY POWDER), Young Jean Lee (STRAIGHT WHITE MEN), Matthew Lopez (THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA McBRIDE), and Dick Scanlan (WHORL INSIDE A LOOP), and Holland Taylor (ANN).

For those of you who subscribe to The Dramatist, the official magazine of the Dramatists Guild, you may have noticed the feature “DPS Profile.” DPS Profiles are fascinating round-table discussions with some of our playwrights. We value the close relationship that we have with our founding organization, and are proud to sponsor this deeper look into our playwrights’ processes.

Please continue to follow us on Facebook, , and Instagram, and do keep up with our website, which we update regularly, and which is now easier than ever to navigate.

Finally—thank you for your continued loyalty as we head into our next 80 years!

Sincerely,

Peter Hagan President

His score is professional and has a number of fine comic and sweeping statements, or to embed ideologies; rather, WOMEN IN dramatic songs.” —TheaterScene.net. “Overall, THE ZOMBIES: A MUSICAL JEOPARDY! inspires conversation through its laughter. At its heart, WOMEN SPOOF! is fitful entertainment for those in the mood for a cheesy horror IN JEOPARDY! is comedy gold.”—Rochester Ciy Newspaper. movie spoof.” —WomanAroundTown.com

The World of Extreme Happiness by Frances Ya-Chu Cowhig Full Length, Drama 3 men, 3 women (doubling) $100 per performance $9.00 Acting Edition (ISBN: 978-0-8222-3551-4) THE STORY: Unwanted from the moment she’s born, Sunny is determined to escape her life in rural China and forge a new identity in the city. As naïve as she is ambitious, Sunny views her new job in a grueling factory as a stepping stone to untold opportunities. When fate casts her as a company spokeswoman at a sham PR event, Sunny’s bright outlook starts to unravel in a series of harrowing and darkly comic events, as she begins to question a system enriching itself by destroying its own people. THE REVIEWS: “Some playwrights have a gift to amuse; Frances Ya-Chu Cowhig has a darker gift. Anyone with romantic notions of Chinese culture will be unsettled by [her] jagged, unsentimental portrait of modern urban China…Cowhig shows us the dysfunctional world , in all its stupidity and brutality. …Cowhig has written a play to open our eyes, to unsettle.” —Chicago Reader. “The beauty of Cowhig’s play is that it offers a window on a hidden world. The play has an epic scope—charting the effects of the Cultural Revolution, the 1989 crushing of the pro-democracy movement, and the cultural shift that has seen China’s urban population grow by 400 million in the last 30 years—but it tells history through the lives of those looking for a better life.” —The Guardian (UK).
