UCA professor dazzles famed playwright McNally

“Raymond Frontain, English professor at the University of Central Arkansas in Conway, recently published in the March-April issue of Gay and Lesbian Review a study of acclaimed playwright Terrence McNally?s works (Ragtime, Kiss of the Spider Woman, the Americanized version of The Full Monty, and more),” writes Linda Caillouet in her “Paper Trails” column in today’s edition of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. “After reading it, McNally was so impressed with Frontain, he invited the professor to New York for the premiere of his play, Some Men, on the struggle for gay rights. For the premiere at the Second Stage Theater, Frontain found himself seated near legendary playwright and McNally mentor Edward Albee (Who?s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and the Pulitzer Prizewinning A Delicate Balance) and across the aisle from actor Nathan Lane. Frontain has been invited back for the preview of McNally?s latest play, Deuce, starring Angela Lansbury.”
