Book excerpt: A Time Below is an excerpt from Ludden's acclaimed work Mary Go-Round, that first appeared as a weekly serial in M/W in Washington, DC and Baltimore, MD. In this epic story of coming of age, the realities of national politics and the place of lesbians and gays in society at large, we see a son of the conservative south work for his right wing Congressman as he grapples with his emerging homosexuality.In this play the subplot of AIDS in the 1980s is dealt with head on. It offers humor and drama in a rare mixture of pathos and humor, a trademark of Ludden's writings as Dear Diva.Take a trip back to the early 1980s, when an AIDS diagnosis was a death sentence, and society was reticent to embrace the victims of this horrible disease.A perfect 1-hour dramatic presentation for young actors in their early 20s.
