Terrence McNally Boeken
Terrence McNally was een Amerikaanse toneelschrijver, librettist en scenarioschrijver wiens werken thema's als identiteit, seksualiteit en de zoektocht naar menselijke verbinding verkenden. Zijn toneelstukken onderzochten vaak de complexiteit van relaties en maatschappelijke normen met scherp inzicht en geestige humor. McNally's bijdrage aan het Amerikaanse theater was omvangrijk en zijn schrijfwerk resoneert nog steeds door zijn eerlijkheid en karakterdiepgang. Zijn meesterschap in dialoog en verhaalstructuur maakte hem tot een sleutelfiguur in het hedendaagse drama.

The world can and will go on without us but I have to think that we have made this world a better place. That we have left it richer, wiser than had we not chosen the way of art. The 1996 Tony Award winner for Best Play. Terrence McNally's Master Class presents the legendary opera diva, Maria Callas, as she puts aspiring young singers through their paces in a series of master classes. Both moving and entertaining, this theatrical tour de force dramatizes the Callas phenomenon and "is an unembarrassed, involving meditation on Callas's life and the nature of her art. Such subjects are not easily dramatized, certainly not with this brio." (New York Times) After opening on Broadway in 1995 with Zoe Caldwell and Audra McDonald, the play premiered in London in 1997 with Patti LuPone. It was last revived on Broadway and in the West End in 2011-12 starring Tyne Daly.
