5.0 out of 5 stars An Unknown Allen Trilogy, March 5, 2006

This review is from: God: A Comedy in One Act (Paperback)

"Did you hear about Sy Clops? He's got a middle eye infection." "God" is one of three on-acts Allen wrote to be performed together. The others are "Sex" and "Death." The author used elements of these plays in subsequent films. In the 1980s, radio versions of all three were produced and broadcast in the U.S. (National Radio Theater), Great Britain (BBC) and Australia (ABC). "God" is set in ancient Greece where actors are preparing to produce a tragedy. Or is it set in a modern Broadway theater, where the characters keep calling Woody Allen on the phone to complain about how he wrote them? This was written to accompany two other Allen one-acts, "Sex" and "Death."
