HOME FREE! Lawrence and Joanna, a brother and sister in their mid-twenties, have cut themselves off from the world “outside,” living in a cluttered playroom which they share with two imaginary companions, “Edna” and “Claypone.” Surrounded by toys, including a brightly colored miniature Ferris wheel, they have created an atmosphere of almost suffocating intimacy and remove, where play becomes the business of life and reality an alien force to be kept at bay.
THE MADNESS OF LADY BRIGHT traces the mental breakdown of Lesley Bright, an aging homosexual whose past returns to haunt him with the emptiness of the choices he made.
