Here's the script to the winner of Best Off-Broadway Play of 1989 as voted by the Outer Critics Circle. Funny, serious, suspenseful, involving, disturbing, and above all, expertly crafted...It concerns the intended hostile takeover of a deserving but obsolescent Rhode Island family business, New England Wire and Cable, honorably and not unprofitably run, that provides jobs for an entire small town's population...Epic grandeur and intimate titillation combined. It is the most stimulating kind of entertainment. - John Simon, New York magazine. Hardcover.
