Synopsis: | 3 Plays Based on Fact, a program of plays by Norman Beim. The following description is from the show's press release: "The trilogy of one acts, Stranger Than Fiction; 3 Plays Based on Fact include A Love Story, which tells the story of a poignant long-distance relationship between a young girl in Poland and a middle-aged storekeeper in Prague which began during World War I. In A Queen's Revenge, an older gay man is deserted by his younger lover and seeks retribution. The third play, The Deserter, is based on the story of Private Eddie Slovik, the only American soldier shot for desertion during World War II." | |||||
