McCraney, who translates buried anguish into monologues of rough delicacy rarely found outside the plays of August Wilson, finds the mythological patterns in lives that have been underrepresented and uncompassionately seen.

“The way Bianca wrote the text was very factual, so I knew I wanted that — not uncompassionate but matter-of-fact, and then we’re moving on,” he said.

One woman said she was "so angry", adding: "They did not have to kill it", while another said the decision was "appalling, incompetent, lazy, distressing, uncompassionate, predictable".

But he has said repeatedly over the past week that the bill regarding medical care for trans youth was reckless and uncompassionate.

He said that there had been a "pantomime of scientists against business people" during the pandemic "as if there isn't one giant shared agenda" - and the latter were "positioned as the uncompassionate ones".
