Glengarry Glen Rose was difficult to read with all of the broken and interrupted dialogue. To be quite honest I was completely confused. This play also had a lot of profanity in it, which is something we haven’t seen in most of the plays. It is also a cast of all men no females.
I feel as if his play would be easier to watch than it was to read. Just like the last two plays we read I guess this play can be considered Epic theatre because I definitely did not make any types of connections with any of the characters. Though, I was confused while reading it I can state that some of it reminded me of Top Girls. The idea of doing whatever it takes to be at the top. Capitalism fosters greed in this play just as it did in Top Girls. It is interesting to see it from a man’s perspective versus a female’s perspective as in Top Girls. I am pretty sure the men in the class will have a lot of comments to make on this subject.
