I?m looking for the name and author of a play about George Washington.
It is a modern one-act farce (in seven scenes, I think). It was
directed by Angie Paton at the old Addison Theatre in Berkeley maybe
25 years ago.
It concerns the American Revolution. George Washington and General
Burgoyne are characters in it. Washington has a dream about his father
in which Burgoyne appears as the father figure. The American and
British armies appear as puppets supported by a few real actors.
I believe it was written by someone who isn't known for writing
plays--a poet perhaps or a writer about educational matters.
