Eminently quotable, although admittedly some of the quotes have a sort of 1970s zing to them now. The Shadow Box is one of my favorite plays, although showing its age in a couple of places now.Ī wistful and moving rumination on death (and, by default, life) that somehow manages to avoid being maudlin even when it skates very close.
