A Bit about Mee

A recent RTE "Arts Show" featured the American playwright and author Charles Mee.

It was an absorbing interview. I found myself in agreement with his views and will, when I get time, look deeper into his work.I also admired his approach to his own work. He described his borrowing from Greek drama and welcomed all comers to do likewise with his material.He welcomed writers to pilfer from his website (see http://www.charlesmee.org/html/about.html) where he has posted the scripts of his plays.

So if you're looking for ideas for a play where better to start.Wonder would similar work for poets?
