When David Mamet came to Philadelphia in January of 1990 for the opening night of a new production of his little-known play, Squirrels, first performed fifteen years before in Chicago, he sat in the audience and decided the play was lacking a last line. On the spot he made one up and it was included in the rest of the production's run, although it has not appeared in the Samuel French Acting Edition.' This tag line, Or words to that effect, sums up both the play and the argument of this essay
