註釋Revealing the playwright's talent for dramatizing the lives of public figures, this collection of five plays gives life to hidden histories. "Playing Burton" imagines the life of Hollywood actor Richard Burton, while "Norah's Bloke" chronicles the heartrending choices made by Cathy James and her friends as World War II draws to an end. "Mr Owen's Millennium" chronicles the bizarre and messianic career of cotton magnate and visionary Robert Owen in 1858. "Downtown Paradise" recalls how Rachel Bloom, a radical Jewish lawyer, falls for her Black Panther client, and "Birthmarks" tells the story of Karl Marx's illegitimate son.
