Neil Wechsler s Grenadine has been chosen as the second winner of the Yale Drama Series. The play was selected by Pulitzer Prize winning playwright and contest judge Edward Albee. Grenadine is the fantastical story of a man s quest for love in the company of three devoted friends. Albee writes, I found it highly original. . . . The questions the play asks and the answers it proposes are provocative; the play stretched my mind.
