Fails WP:GNG. This play, while by a notable playwright, has never been performed by a professional theatre company. The "reviews" in the article are of performances by amateur student theatre groups; one a local review of a production at an American high school and the other an advertisement (not a review by a critic but a copy a now deprecated program which you can see here) by "Revised Edition Student Theatre Company"; the pre-professional theatre school attached to the professional Eastbourne based Revised Edition Theatre Company. I could find no secondary coverage of the play in reference works, and I personally don't think the one review in evidence, a local paper covering the local high school production, counts toward WP:SIGCOV. In other words, none of the sources provided in the first AFD which are currently in the article count as independent significant coverage. 4meter4 (talk) 03:24, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Fails WP:GNG, with no suitable sources online. Some of the decisions made in old AfD's seem so strange to me. JML1148 (talk | contribs) 23:20, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
