Marie and Bruce

Description: Marie and Bruce Very Good - Text Unmarked - Binding and Cover Clean and Tight - Ready to Ship By -- Wallace Shawn Published by -- Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York, 1980, 31 Pages, Staple-Bound, 7.75" X 5.25" X .1", 2 oz. [PULBISHER'S DESCRIPTION]"As the play begins Marie and Bruce, a young married couple, are still in bed, he sleeping soundly, she excoriating him and vowing that she will put an end to their marriage. It seems that she had thrown away his ancient typewriter, which precipitated an ugly scene, but there is more to their problem than this. However, when Bruce wakes and prepares breakfast, he seems impervious to her insults and blithely unconcerned about her threats to leave him. Later, in an hilarious party scene (where some of the guests are impersonated by mannequins) Marie and Bruce mingle with a bizarre assortment of New York "types," while she tries to muster the courage to make the final break. Then, after they have adjourned to a Chinese restaurant (with a rather coarse, but very funny group at the next table) Marie finally boils over, and attempts not only to leave Bruce but virtually to destroy him. But, again, Bruce reacts as though he has barely heard her and she, in turn, realizes that it is his weakness, his vulnerability, which makes her need him. Their marriage, they both know, is terrible--and, of course, it will last forever." #MyDinnerWithAndre #instaread #booksale #DramatistsPlayService #Bookworm #Books #instabooks #collectiblebooks #CuttleboneBooks #MarieAndBruce #Vintage #Bookstagram #bookcollecting #Drama #bibliophile #Theater #SamuelFrench #BooksBooksBooks #WallaceShawn #Drama #bibliophile #Theater #GrandNagusZek #readersofinstagram #Play #booksforsale #Antiquarian
