2204527 Bishop's Road London N6. 24 November 1964. 1p 4to. In fair condition aged and lightly creased. Folded twice. The letter begins: 'Dear Bernard You probably know that I have just returned from Cuba and it was an exciting trip. Unfortunately one of the most depressing things was their very bad theatre; this is particularly because it is new and has no tradition but also to a great extent due to their intolerable isolation.' Although there is little that they can do Wesker promised to 'send as many plays and books' as he can. 'They really don't have hard currency to purchase more than a handful of international works' so Wesker has promised 'to write to a few writers and publishers asking whether they would contribute copies of their work which I would send together with the Leyland buses on a ship to Cuba'. Kops cannot imagine 'how hungry they are to be in contact'. He asks for copies of Kops's plays and of his book 'The Whole World is a Wedding'. He would buy the books but this 'would work out very expensive' so he is 'asking lots of writers to share the burden'. He ends with best wishes to 'Erica and the children'. 27 Bishop's Road, London, N6. 24 November 1964. unknown

Rhesus, a tragedy traditionally (but wrongly) attributed to Euripides, has been the object of too little scholarly attention over the last decades. While debate has focused largely on the question of the play's authenticity, consequently overlooking the features of the play itself, this important new commentary explores the essential elements such as language, style, character-portrayal, and metre. The play's stagecraft and plot-construction are scrutinized and shown to be generally idiosyncratic and often defective despite occasional flashes of genius in the handling of dramatic time and theatrical space. Through the detailed introduction, translation, and commentary, Liapis shows that Rhesus is largely derivative, as it contains a significant amount of textual material taken from other classical tragedies and genres. The conclusion is that the contested author's familiarity with fifth-century drama bespeaks a professional actor, probably one specializing in re-performances of classical repertoire. Such evidence suggests that Rhesus can therefore be considered as not only a surviving fourth-century tragedy, but also one conceived for performance outside of Athens. ; 364 pages

"A Touch of the Poet" was the last play that O'Neill wrote and completed. Harold Clurman the director says in this Playbill that the play "was to be the first of a series of plays that would trace the history of an American family through the generations from 1828 to the present."The play opened on October 2 1958 at the Helen Hayes Theatre and marked the first time that Hayes had played in the theatre named for her. "Given Eugene O'Neill and a cast of superb actors the effect on the stage is electric" according to New York Times theatre critic Brooks Atkinson. Later in his review he says: "Mr. Clurman has made a thunderbolt out of O'Neill's writing." The New York Times October 3 1958 page 23.Signed copies of this Playbill are scarce to the market.
