Marissa Skudlarek:
How appropriate that you are reading the collected works of Peter Shaffer. His passing has left a gaping hole in the realm of World Theatre. A marvelous playwright. Have you known his works long?

I've had this ask box on my profile for 7 years but only now discovered there were questions in it! My apologies to you, Octavio for the long wait, but I'm always happy to discuss Peter Shaffer. I really fell in love with his plays in college, circa 2005. My freshman year roommate was in a student production of "Equus" and we had a metal horse head hanging on our wall for the rest of the year... if it weren't such a great play, it would have been frightening! And then, as you note, I made sure to revisit them in 2016 after his passing.
