A play about the life of Georg Buchner, the nineteenth-century German playwright, has won this year's Phyllis Anderson Play Award, A Public Exposition, by Charles F. Sabel '69, was chosen from among eighteen unproduced plays by Harvard students to receive the honor.
Sabel, a graduate student in Government, became interested in Buchner while doing his Social Studies honors thesis. "There was one of those misunderstandings between Buchner and his times," said Sabel. "He misconstrued history and they misconstrued him."
The Anderson Award carries a $500 honorarium. Sabel intends to use the money to produce the play, and is now searching for a director.
