The Illusion by Pierre Corneille
4.0
What a fun read! I had looked up some background and saw an interview with Kushner where he said this was the only play he had written at the time that was structured to have a twist ending. Of course, I was wondering what the twist would be the entire time I was reading it. When it occurred in the text, I couldn't help myself but smile. I can't believe I hadn't heard of this play before. I can see why it would be a popular read in high schools. In some ways, it reminded me of a Lisa Kron play.
