Though I enjoyed this program, I don't think I could list it as one of my favorites. The reason I found the play interesting has less to do with the acting or writing and more to do with world events that preceeded this program.

Remember that back in 1978, the Reverend Jim Jones woke us up to the potential of a cult when he led his followers to death in Guyana. This program reminded me of this incident because it involved both a plane and a religious fanatic. I recall that a congressman and his delegation where gunned down when boarding a small aircraft after investigating the commune in Guyana. Also, in 1979 we all remember the American citizens that were taken hostage in Iran after religious fundamentalists assumed power.

With these two world events (both with a tone of religious fanatacism) on the minds or in the subconscious of many of us at the time this play was written, I wonder if the author was influenced to write this story.
