Fifth of July

 

This was my introduction to Lanford Wilson. The best thing about this play is that there is a gay couple and their sexuality is never discussed. This is pretty advanced for a play that was staged in the 1970s. The main character is Ken, a disabled Vietnam veteran. Should he teach high school again? Also, he's thinking of selling the house. Family and friends of the couple gather together for two days.  It was ok but I have a feeling Lanford probably wrote better plays so I'll read more from my library.
