New from Santa Catalina Editions: ART & DECADENCE PLAYS

 

New for October 2012 from Santa Catalina Editions:
 
ART AND DECADENCE PLAYS
(Magnificent Waste, Lulu Ascending, Tilt Heaven)
by Caridad Svich
 
The three plays by OBIE-winning playwright Caridad Svich examine varying aspects of art and decadence through the lens of contemporary visual art, photography, painting, and fashion. MAGNIFICENT WASTE (2012 finalist for PEN Center USA Literary Award in Drama), LULU ASCENDING (a play on Wedekind's Lulu plays) and TILT HEAVEN are acid-dipped views of celebrity culture and consumerism, suffused with a hard ache for the lost souls that inhabit their distinct harsh-lit, emptied worlds of sadness.
