About this title: How does the world settle its differences, now there is only one superpower? What happens to leaders risking their credibility with sceptical publics? From events which have dominated international headlines for the last two years, David Hare has fashioned both a historical narrative and a human drama about the frustrations of power and the limits of diplomacy.

Description: New. "Stuff happens...And it's untidy, and freedom's untidy, and free people are free to make mistakes and commit crimes and do bad things. " Such was Donald Rumsfeld's response on April 11, 2003, following the infamous looting and pillaging of Baghdad. read more
"An incredible and unlikely page-turner. You actually see the play in your head as you read. The second I was done reading it, I started at the beginning and read it all again a second time--something i don't ever remember doing with any book or play before. I'd recommend it to anyone."
"Making the fall of Colin Powell as the arc in this play was a very smart choice. If anyone lost their soul in this administration, it was Powell, if only by virtue of the fact that he was the only cabinet member who had one to lose."
"Wow, David Hare wrote that? I remember having to study him in college as an example of one of the great modern dramatists. I can't speak to how Stuff Happens is performed, but it reads like someone trying to explain the Iraq War to a child. And there was no drama. These events covered major power battles among America's leaders, but this play depended on actors just staring into the audience and cue card explaining what happened. There is a great and epic story to the power struggle leading up to the Iraq War. This is not it."
"An exercise in taking quotes and events (nonfiction) from the press and other sources, then writing a piece of fiction. Or is it? A historical play. That's what it is. Very recent history. Overall, good read."
