Talk:Simon Gray

message: Why on earth should someone take out the sentence "He has a penchant for writing showy lead roles for middle-aged males"? This is a major part of Gray's dramaturgy and knowledge of it adds to a full picture of what to expect from a Gray play for the reader of the article. I am putting it back in, perhaps more subtley worded. But it is non-point of view, and the removal of it unhelpful. Jmc29
What is wrong with "showy" as a descriptive adjective? The parts Gray writes for actors are designed as star vehicles, showing off the star in a display of wit, verbal dexterity and emotional range: thus, they are "showy". Jmc29
What an interesting man. A reading of his obits which I've provided (he died today) fills in what the article lacks. JohnClarknew (talk) 05:51, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
