100 Greatest American Plays

These are important American dramatic works discussed in depth in the book "100 Greatest American Plays" (Thomas S. Hischak, 2017). Plus some more fun from the larrikin Aussie retiree: the 3 photos in the list image are from live performances. Can you work out from which specific play in each case?
The plays are in reverse chronological order (2012-1787). Please only check an item if you have read the play (not a related novel) or seen a theatrical performance (not a movie).
