By Thomas Geisler
Based on actual events during the Second Punic War between Rome and Carthage, “The Wedding Cup” is a drama about the tragic love triangle between Sophonisba, a Carthaginian general’s daughter, and the rival rulers of two North African states. As Scipio, the Roman general, prepares to invade Africa, Sophonisba must make dreadful choices which will ultimately shape history. “No Woman is an Island” is a comic short drama variation of the Theseus/Ariadne myth in which they land on the wrong island and all Hellas breaks loose. “In the Beginning” describes God’s frustrated attempts to explain how the universe was created to Moses, to help him write “Genesis.” In “CAFeFIEND” a nervous Greenwich Village date takes several unexpected bounces, but ends in poetic justice.

By J. William Miller
HELEN OF TROY or PARIS AND HELEN’S WAR is based upon one of the world’s great love stories. The full story has never before been told as drama in serious, modern, psychological terms. And out of the flames of Troy, what a phoenix of a story emerges! This play is unique. Original crucial, creative insights order and develop raw material otherwise lacking in unity, emphasis and coherence. Homer, Plutarch, Heinrich Schliemann, Sir Arthur Evans, Robert Graves and less well-known writers provide clues. Yet versions conflict depending upon whose national ox is gored. The play focuses upon a meaning for our times of women’s liberation, middle-eastern relentless revenge and atomic weapons. And what is major? Probability, momentum and impact. A summary precedes the text. This book may well become, in time, a valuable first edition. If Helen could wait over roughly 3,500 years to come into her due glory, she can wait a little longer to come into her fullest glory so far onstage and even possibly onscreen. To date, the play has been produced at the University of Maine and at Marquette University. Excerpts from reviews of accredited newspaper critics are cited on this book’s face or cover. To encourage production at the university level, the play may be produced royalty free for the first ten years of this book’s copyright. Since 9/11/01, an endgame Trojan horse stalks the world’s thinking.
