"The Mound Builders" is both astonishingly entertaining and shatteringly profound, like all great plays. In the tale of an odd group of people--archaeologists, a drunken writer, an ambitious farmboy, a child--writer Lanford Wilson discovers the major rifts in western civilization and the human soul. A superb cast, superbly directed,ekes all the joy and all the horror from that rarest of contemporary works of art, an intelligent lay about intelligent people.
