A challenge to local artistic directors: Why not join in on the six-week-old, 46-weeks-to go year-long nationwide production of Suzan-Lori Parks' *365 Plays*? The Pulitzer winner (for *Topdog/Underdog*) wrote a (short, usually a page or two) play every day from a year from Nov. '02-Nov. '03, and now chunks and week-long portions of the 365-play cycle are being produced all over the country, with theaters and community groups joining in all the time.

The book is available from Theater Communications Group books, tcg.org for $18
The "3 Constants" alone summarize much of theatrical art. Reading her plays is like taking a miniature course in how to write for the stage.
