Editing James B. Carrington

[[File:Carrington.png|thumb|right|''CARRINGTON: Maybe they ''should'' feel lost, Joseph: just as lost then as we are always already lost. Just like poor, itinerant Silas, wandering the road, looking for a home.'']]
'''Carrington''' is a friend of [[Joseph]] and [[Lula]] from their college days. [[Conway]] has the chance to meet him at [[Equus Oils]] in [[Act I]].

Throughout the story, Carrington searches for an outdoor venue to perform his play, an experimental adaptation of Robert Frost's [[wikipedia:The Death of the Hired Man|"The Death of the Hired Man"]]. He is also director of the play ''[[The Entertainment]]''. In talking with [[Shannon]] at the [[Random Access Self-Storage Facility]] in [[Act III]], he references many others plays as well, such as ''[[wikipedia:Oresteia|Oresteia]]'', ''[[wikipedia:Goethe's Faust|Faust]]'', ''[[wikipedia:The Iceman Cometh|The Iceman Cometh]]'', and ''[[wikipedia:The Glass Menagerie|The Glass Menagerie]]''. In the beginning of [[Act II]], in talking with [[Lula]], he quotes the French dramatist [[wikipedia:Antonin Artaud|Antonin Artaud]]. He claims drama is only his second love; his true calling is pseudoscience.
