In a note on the play, Sontag explains the echoes of Pirandello and of Alice in Wonderland in this whimsical and provocative play. She conceived of it while directing a Pirandello play in Rome. As she thought about Alice, Carroll's Alice kept coming to mind, and the convergence produced, most notably, a "mad teaparty" scene between Alice and her historical and literary predecessors where there is much talk at cross-purposes, advice given, and frustration over objectives.
