All You Need Is Love


“I write love stories.  Most of my plays are that.  Over and over again I have written about romantic love, because it never goes away.  And the view of the world it provides, the dislocation it offers, is the most intense experience that many people know on earth” (Hare, Obedience, Struggle & Revolt, 124).

Is The Blue Room a "love story"?  It's certainly about sex.  As an open-ended question for discussion, which characters are looking for love (or meaning), as opposed to lust (or pleasure)?
