Question:

What is the play containing the monologue that begins with "Richard, are you awake?"?

It continue "I think that you are awake, but you don't have to say anything. You can pretend you are asleep. You can pretend, if you want, that I am a dream you are having. It may be easier that way..." I don't remember the playwright or the play!!!
