| I'm mystified by the "problems" you seem to find. I think all of the choices are valid, even if they are not all mine. For instance, I think (depending on your definitions) a strong argument can be made that Youth is more "important" than 3TW. I love the latter, but I am not convinced it broke new ground in the way the former did. That said, I think my strongest agreement is with whoever said that ranking things is just silliness. | |

| Don't be "mystified", it's not that dramatic. But the list saying it is the 25 "BEST" not "most important" or even "25 plays that represent American theater since Angels", which seems more accurate to their intentions. I do not think, by any stretch of the imagination, that This Is Our Youth is the 13th BEST play since 1993... i don't even know if makes the top 25. In fact, I do not think it should. |

| How are you defining "best"? To me best and important are synonymous (and to explain a bit more, I don't think "important" has to relate to the subject matter of a play). | |
