Book (italiano):
<div><p> Neil LaBute is one of America’s most provocative and lauded playwrights, and his darkly exhilarating talent is on glorious view in this new collection. <i>Things We Said Today</i> features the scripts for Neil LaBute’s groundbreaking Directv project <i>10x10</i>?a series of short films written and directed by LaBute based on ten compelling original monologues, five each for men and women.<br> </p><p> Also included are five short plays displaying the power and scope of Neil LaBute’s creative vision. In <i>Pick One</i>, three white guys come up with a way to solve America’s problems; in <i>The Possible</i>, one young woman seduces another’s boyfriend for an unexpected reason. <i>Call Back</i> features an actress and actor who spar about a past encounter that she, unnervingly, remembers much better than he does. <i>Good Luck</i> (<i>In Farsi</i>), ?a pleasingly astringent study in competitiveness and vanity” (T<i>he New York Times</i>) has two actresses pulling out all the stops in a preaudition psych out; and in <i>Squeeze Play</i> a father and his son’s baseball coach strike a mutually</p><p> beneficial deal. Rounding out the collection are two monologues commissioned as part of Centerstage’s ?My America” project.</p></div>
