Dreams Turning into Nightmares for Willy Loman
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp). Much of the Arthur Miller's play
The Death of A Salesman, looks at the loss of one
man's idea of the American Dream of success, or
'making it.' It occurs to Willy Loman that he is
not making it, as he thought he would, neither
are his sons. Loman was so busy focused on himself
and his first son, that not much thought is given
to his second son, Hap. Happy, who hardly follows
the nature of his name, will be the focus of this
discussion.

Drew Hurley/"Zorba and the Boss"
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that examines Drew Hurley's eclectic play, Distraction. The writer argues that this play is rather like taking a spin course through the last several hundred years of Western literature and philosophy in a way that is both entertaining, thought provoking and comprehensible. Basically Hurley presents a brief history of the way that Western culture has viewed that slippery concept called "reality" over the last several hundred years. In so doing, he presents characters that the audience already knows, but he does so in a format that condenses their philosophy and contrasts it against other viewpoints. The writer concentrates on the portion of the play that features Zorba the Greek and a character referred to as "the Boss." No other sources cited.
