"[Our Late Night is] a short play, but a savage one...Neurosis, panic and sexual surreality underlie Shawn's startling vision of New Yorkers at play."—Guardian
Wallace Shawn's OBIE Award-winning, never before published Our Late Night premiered in New York in 1975 under direction of André Gregory, and was revived in London in 1999 under direction of Caryl Churchill. A Thought in Three Parts—currently out of print—created an uproar with its 1977 London premiere, investigated by the vice squad for its allegedly pornographic content.
Wallace Shawn is a noted actor and writer. His politically charged and controversial plays include Aunt Dan and Lemon, The Designated Mourner, and The Fever.

Our Late Night and A Thought in Three Parts: Two Plays
Wallace Shawn is a fascinating,challenging writer and a clear, sharp thinker. The introduction and afterword are outstanding and on their own make this volume worth reading. The plays themselves are pretty difficult, and almost guaranteed to offend. They require an ability to step back from what passes as the narrative in order to see how Shawn examines interpersonal interaction in an almost clinical way'pulling banal interactions into high relief by continually inserting absurdly inappropriate behavior that reveals underlying aspects of our baser nature in a kind of grotesque caricature.
It's vertiginous, bewildering, disgusting, and interesting if you like art that doesn't let you off easy.
