The American Playwrights Theater: The One Acts

Arthur Asher Miller (October 17, 1915 – February 10, 2005) was an American playwright, essayist, and figure in twentieth-century American theater.
 Among his most popular plays are "All My Sons" (1947), "Death of a Salesman" (1949), "The Crucible" (1953) and "A View from the Bridge" (1955, revised 1956).
 He also wrote several screenplays and was most noted for his work on "The Misfits" (1961).
 The drama "Death of a Salesman" has been numbered on the short list of finest American plays in the 20th century alongside "Long Day's Journey into Night" and "A Streetcar Named Desire".
George Cram Cook or Jig Cook (October 7, 1873 – January 14, 1924) was an American theatre producer, director, playwright, novelist, poet, and university professor.
 Believing it was his personal mission to inspire others, Cook led the founding of the Provincetown Players, the first modern American theatre company.
 During his seven-year tenure with the group Cook oversaw the production of nearly one-hundred new plays by fifty American playwrights.
 He is particularly remembered for producing the first plays of Eugene O'Neill, along with those of Cook's wife Susan Glaspell, and several other noted writers.
 As a professor at the University of Iowa from 1896 to 1899, Cook taught what is considered to be the first ever creative writing course.
 Titled "Verse-Making," the course was continued by Cook's colleagues at the university after his departure where it gradually evolved into the world's first and most renowned creative writing program, the famed Iowa Writer's Workshop.
Thomas Lanier "Tennessee" Williams III (March 26, 1911 – February 25, 1983) was an American playwright.
 Along with Eugene O'Neill and Arthur Miller, he is considered among the three foremost playwrights of 20th-century American drama.
Harold Hart Crane (July 21, 1899 – April 27, 1932) was an American poet.
 Finding both inspiration and provocation in the poetry of T. S. Eliot, Crane wrote modernist poetry that was difficult, highly stylized, and ambitious in its scope.
 In his most ambitious work, "The Bridge", Crane sought to write an epic poem, in the vein of "The Waste Land", that expressed a more optimistic view of modern, urban culture than the one that he found in Eliot's work.
 In the years following his suicide at the age of 32, Crane has been hailed by playwrights, poets, and literary critics alike (including Robert Lowell, Derek Walcott, Tennessee Williams, and Harold Bloom), as being one of the most influential poets of his generation.
Steven Dietz (born June 23, 1958) is an American playwright.
 With the exception of "Fiction", produced Off-Broadway by the Roundabout Theatre Company in 2004, the vast majority of Dietz's plays are produced in American regional theaters.
 During the 2015-16 season, Dietz premiered three new plays: "Bloomsday" (American Theatre Critics Association Steinberg New Play Award Citation), "This Random World" (Humana Festival of New American Plays), and the thriller "On Clover Road" (National New Play Network rolling world premiere).
 In 2010, Dietz was once again named one of the most produced playwrights in America (excluding Shakespeare), placing eighth on the list of the Top Ten Most Produced Playwrights in America, tied with Tennessee Williams and Edward Albee for number of productions.
 Other recent plays include the black comedy, "Rancho Mirage", and the contemporary riff on Arthur Schnitzler's "Reigen" entitled "American la Ronde".
 Dietz has taught in the MFA Playwriting and Directing programs at the University of Texas at Austin since 2006 .
 In addition, he is a Dramatists Guild "Traveling Master", teaching workshops and master classes on playwriting and story-making around the U.S.
Clifford Odets (July 18, 1906 – August 14, 1963) was an American playwright, screenwriter, and director.
 Odets was widely seen as successor to Nobel Prize-winning playwright Eugene O'Neill as O'Neill began to retire from Broadway's commercial pressures and increasing critical backlash in the mid-1930s.
 From early 1935 on, Odets' socially relevant dramas proved extremely influential, particularly for the remainder of the Great Depression.
 Odets' works inspired the next several generations of playwrights, including Arthur Miller, Paddy Chayefsky, Neil Simon, David Mamet, and Jon Robin Baitz.
 After the production of his play "Clash by Night" in the 1941–1942 season, Odets focused his energies on film projects, remaining in Hollywood for the next seven years.
 He began to be eclipsed by such playwrights as Miller, Tennessee Williams and, in 1950, William Inge.
Playwrights Horizons is a not-for-profit Off-Broadway theater located in New York City dedicated to the support and development of contemporary American playwrights, composers, and lyricists, and to the production of their new work.
Theatre Genesis was an Off-Off-Broadway theater founded in 1964 by Ralph Cook.
 Located in the historic St. Mark's Church in-the-Bowery in New York City, it produced the work of new American playwrights, including Lanford Wilson, Murray Mednick, Leonard Melfi, Walter Hadler and most notably Sam Shepard.
 It is regarded as one of four theaters responsible for the explosion of New York's off-off-Broadway movement, along with Joe Cino's Caffe Cino, Judson Poets Theatre and La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club.
Norman, Is That You?
 is a 1970 play in two acts by American playwrights Ron Clark and Sam Bobrick about a Jewish couple coming to terms with their son's homosexuality.
 The work is notably the first play written by both writers.
 After 19 preview performances, the play officially opened on Broadway on February 19, 1970 at the Lyceum Theatre.
 It closed after only 12 more performances on February 28, 1970.
