An actor and director - his staging of Dominique Morriseau's "Skeleton Crew" is about to open at the Atlantic Theater - he rejects petty domestic drama, asserting that no writer who's endured oppression would create such a scenario: "That's why you never see a brother writing a play about falling love with a goat or something like that." Is this a dismissal of Jane Austen or a call for a theater of stronger feeling or a too narrow view of goat romance?
