SUPERS
Classification. A single scene sketch; it is like a charcoal drawing.
Plot. The plot, concealed beneath the picture, lies in the objectifying of the eternal struggle for bread and meat.
Setting. The place is the street near the theatre door: like a magnet it draws the individual human beings, who cohere in the mass until the attracting power is removed.
Characters. This mass, or aggregate, emphasizes the individual struggle, at the same time it engulfs individual personality. What does the name “Supers” indicate, literally? Figuratively? What part does Red Beard play? How does he, too, contribute to the larger unity at the same time he offers a note of contrast?
Atmosphere. Sordid, drab realism, uncompromising in its ugliness.
