Time:    The bleeding edge of the Trojan war. . .

Isn't that a great line to open a play with? 

I am reading Corey Allen's play Clytemnaestra, and people, it is getting good. ..suspenseful, great images, interesting characters. ..some high theatricality...a hooded character sneaks in with the dogs after him.  Aegisthus!!!

I don't know if Corey has the whole play on this website yet, but he has part of it on here.  Check it out sometime.

Will,


I highly agree.

i have followed corerro's building of his epic play and am very impressed.

Again, I would also recommend reading Edward Crosby Wells' play "The Moon Away" which he has posted at his website edwardcrosbywells.com.

Okay, I will check out this other play.

Corey, I think, must be young.  I think thaty he iis still in college even. . .he has a college address, I noticed.  If he is that good now, he will be great later.  I told him the only thing that I really saw wrong with his dialogue was it was a bit wordy and he used a few too many cliches.  You know:  He would use a cliche one minute and then have a great image in the next line!  Makes no sense.

I am calling Corey "Gory Corey" now because his play is as bloody as Titus Andronicus  (: )
