Reason in Rhyme (1979)

Reason in Rhyme (formerly Three Questions) is a one-man show, a musical-comedy introduction to philosophy, written by Robin Field in the 1970s. This version (July 12, 1979, at a private home in Pacific Palisades, California) was introduced by comedian Dom De Luise, performed for an invited audience of about 50 Hollywood professionals, and videotaped by Video Events of Hollywood. The show had previously been performed for gatherings of teachers, librarians, doctors, family, and friends. It was later performed for high schools and colleges in the United States and Canada.

NOTE: Reason in Rhyme is an entirely original work, and I am solely responsible for the ideas expressed here. However, I would like to acknowledge the enormous influence of Ayn Rand’s philosophy of Objectivism, which serves as the theoretical basis of my work.
