The complete scripts to two of Larry Gelbart's most popular and powerful political satires. Review of ÊMastergateÊ: If George Orwell were a gag writer he could have written ÊMastergate.Ê Larry Gelbart's scathingly funny takeoff on the Iran-Contra hearings is a spiky cactus flower in the desert of American political theatre. ä Jack Kroll ÊNewsweekÊ. Review of ÊPower FailureÊ: There is in his broad etching all the ethical outrage of an Arthur Miller kvetching. And oh so much more fun! ä Carolyn Clay ÊThe Boston PhoenixÊ. - from Amzon
