Two-Way Mirror
T513411978
Two related short plays. In
Elegy for a Lady, a man enters a shop in search of a gift for his dying mistress. He gradually finds himself confiding in the shop's proprietress who, rather curiously, seems to assume the characteristics of the absent mistress, forging a closeness that both have sought but never found.
Some Kind of Love Story is a compelling study of two people destined by their mutual dependence to tear one another apart. Tom, a Chandleresque private eye, finds himself bound to the prostitute Angela whom he believes holds the vital information he requires to solve a long-standing case. She will never reveal what she knows for she is equally bound to Tom in the hope of receiving the affection she has always been denied.
