A Tripos

Twelve one-act plays ranging in emotion from wartime fears and desires to social and political commentary. And a new theater.



"You found a trenchant, driving rhythm for the verse, something that is all your own. It wasn't imposed on the characters: it spoke for them."

—Christopher Fry




"I consider Robert Manns one of the most talented...playwrights in the generation not yet recognized by the commercial theater...His choice of style is unique; his imagination boundless; and his dedication intense. And I believe he has a real gift for the theater."

—Alan Schneider
