Portrait in Black is by Ivan Goff and Ben Roberts. A magnificent realistic fiction play about murder and guilt. A shipping tycoon has died, but was it a natural death or murder. The play centers around the tycoon's widow, his lawyer, his doctor, his daughter, and her boyfriend who is leading a labor strike against the shipping company. One murder leads to another, and the ending is marvelously vague. This drama is definitely worth a read, if you can't find a performance of it to attend.
Ratings: 11th grade - 9 out of 10 - P (profanity) - AC (mature thematic content).
