Let's have a playwright thread
It's a shame /lit/ doesn't seem to read many plays when they are just as literary as any other medium.
Here are some personal recommendations:

TENNESSEE WILLIAMS
- A Streetcar Named Desire
- Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

ARTHUR MILLER

AUGUST STRINDBERG

Calderón de la Barca is fantastic. How does he read in English?
