Four plays chronicle the basic longing of human beings, addressing the risks of honesty and intimacy. Richard Greenberg is the winner of the Newsday's George Oppenheimer Award for Best New American Playwright and the Molly Kazan Playwriting Award. He has been called "a major new playwright" who has "mastered the art of telling a simple story with such grace and skill that it becomes startlingly new" (Fintan O'Toole, New York Daily News). Greenberg's plays have developed a reputation for being "intelligent, whimsical, always powerful pieces of theatre that are profound without being pretentious and that speak about the very basic longing of human beings" (Amy Schaumberg, Drama-Logue).
