Fosse: Plays Two

<strong>Includes <em>A Summer's Day, Dream of Autumn</em> and<em> Winter</em></strong>

These three seasonal plays are typical Fosse, imbuing apparently mundane situations with an almost hypnotic intensity. In <em>A Summer's Day</em>, an old widow remembers the day, many years before, when her husband went out to sea in a terrible storm.

In a series of continuous but chronologically distinct scenes, <em>Dream of Autumn</em> shows a man unexpectedly meeting an old friend: she will become his second wife, and cause him to fall out with his family.

In <em>Winter</em> a fascinating but mercurial woman tries to seduce a businessman, but once he has given up his family and career, he realises may have mistaken her intentions.
