Style and Method of Writing
On Mee’s web site, the (re)making project, he says “There is no such thing as an original play.” and that his plays are “composed in the way that Max Ernst made his Fatagaga pieces toward the end of World War I: texts have often been taken from, or inspired by, other texts.”
The openness of Mee’s scripts do not allow for one authoritative interpretation. They are dependent upon the directors who interpret them.
