Originally titled "Peter and Jerry," it is a one-act play by American absurdist playwright Edward Albee. His first play, it was written in 1958 and completed in just three weeks. The play explores themes of isolation, loneliness, miscommunication as anathematization, social disparity and dehumanization in a commercial world.
Rejected by New York producers, the play premiered in West Berlin at the Schiller Theater Werkstatt on 28 September 1959 in a double bill with the German premiere of Samuel Beckett's Krapp's Last Tape.
Albee would go on to write the classic play, "Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolff?" and win the Pulitzer Prize for Drama three times, the Tony Award twice, the Special Tony Award, the American Award in Literature and be awarded the National Medal of Arts.
