This book contains two of the most enduring plays from one of Canada’s most accomplished playwrights and performers. A funny, satirical story, Never Swim Alone is about two men locked in a ruthless competition of one-upmanship. A hilarious metaplay, This Is A Play follows three actors who reveal their thoughts and motivations as they struggle through a performance.
