Seascape
play by Albee
Seascape, drama in two acts by Edward Albee, produced and published in 1975; it won the Pulitzer Prize for drama that year.
The play presents Nancy and Charlie, a married couple. Picnicking by the ocean one day, they meet Leslie and Sarah, middle-aged giant lizards from beneath the sea who want to evolve. The witty dialogue between the couples affords the playwright an opportunity to examine humans as a species.
