Homework 3 - Bill Cain and Rivera's 36 assumptions about playwright


I chose, Bill Cain, a Jesuit priest and playwright. Most of his stories are based in his personal faith on God. This agrees with Rivera's assumption that one must seek their own personal voice and speak truthfully about life. Cain speaks not only from the truth, but also tries to help out people believe in God. He embraces the idea of how to help out the world. Therefore, his characters that committed a lot of violence changed positively at the end of the story and seek God's help. This is the case in his play,"9  circles." This also agrees with RIvera's assumption that one must write about a reality that one believes is possible.
Cain is also influence by directors, producers and writers to shaped out his work and become a successful playwright. This idea also agrees with Rivera, that mentors helps to bring one's unique voice.
