In a play by this author, after recalling the papaya cream scrubs given to her, one character is mistakenly called Carl by an aging actress using the name “Princess Kosmonopolis.” The opening stage directions of a play by this author describe a bed with giant wicker cornucopias on the headboard that used to belong to Jack Straw and Peter Ochello. In a play by this author, one character claims that his leg injury from hurtling causes him to drink until he hears a “click” in his head. That character rants about “mendacity” to Big Daddy when he suggests that he had a romantic relationship with his teammate Skipper. For 10 points, name this author of Sweet Bird of Youth who wrote about Brick and Maggie Pollitt’s failing marriage in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. ■END■
