James B. Carrington

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 University 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 "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 Oresteia, Faust, The Iceman Cometh, and The Glass Menagerie. He claims drama is only his second love; his true calling is pseudoscience.
