Title: Beginner (American Theater in Literature Program)
Description: In this series of four short dialogues California playwright Erik Ehn explores religion and belief, how we learn to believe and what belief consists of. In Ehn's always magical and considerably crazed world, belief is always in bed with love, and sex is often just beneath the surface. As two of his characters sing: Work work work and pray / Make love make love make love / ... / I pray the world of love will make / Real this world of seeming.
