5.0 out of 5 stars
Better than Church
David Ives is clever and understands the necessary mechanics of a play as well as the gloss that faces the audience. These short plays are by turns funny and brilliant. (And rating it low simply because one did not research it's content seems a bit ignorant and unfair.)

Beware of Titles
I suppose I should have researched this book further before purchasing it. I was tricked by the title. I assumed it was seven one-act plays about the lives of Saints, hopefully that could be performed in a church setting. Instead they are humorous, allegorical and unusual plays, but not what I thought I was purchasing.

Short and Sweet,

This review is from: Lives of the Saints - Acting Edition (Paperback)
David Ives short plays are truly a joy to read. They are by turns comical, sincere, intelligent, nonsensical, thought- provoking, and always totally original.
