“Taj Mahal offers several opportunities. I believe it could work effectively as a radio drama. Choreographed, I can see the play as a musical, because the sweep of time and events in the script call out for that kind of broad scope. The voices are clear and the conflicts and emotions resonate from the language on the page.”
