OLD SOUTH, NEW SOUTH, NO SOUTH" contains an exciting collection of short plays by the relatively unknown playwright, Dr. David Holcombe. Issues as diverse as human cloning, imperial watches, date rape and hoarding are addressed with the same magical combination of professional knowledge and artistic sensibility. This is must read for those who think they know the South and Southern writers. The diversity of length and subject matter make it a perfect source for those directors looking for something new and unexpected. Although Dr. Chekhov might role over in his grave, medicine and drama still offer an irresistible combination for the aspiring actor, director or even medical student with a love of theater.
