THE AMERICAN DREAM

on Third Programme

by EDWARD ALBEE adapted for broadcasting by John Gibson
Edward Albee says of his play: 'It is an examination of the American Scene, an attack on the substitution of artificial for real values in our society, a condemnation of complacency, cruelty, emasculation and vacuity; it is a stand against the fiction that everything in this slipping land of ours is peachy-keen.'
