Interesting article.
The requirement that rights would not be granted until after casting was done and headshots submitted to Albee's agent, scared off a few theaters in my largely hispanic community.
I do not know any other writer who maintained such control over casting, which may be why Albee had the reputation for intractability regarding race. |
