Each student is required to read a play about a relationship. Each play has two principle characters, and, in some cases, only two.

The analysis should be an application of the major concepts that were discussed in the course. A list of plays that may be used for the assignment is posted below.
The student has several options for the play that he/she will read. You will note that the plays listed here concern a variety of different types of relationships.

Norton, 1967.
