He lived and worked in Turkey for six years, and then spent three years living and writing on the Greek island of Mytilini (Lesbos).

Costas Mourselas represented some of the best work produced by the new wave of Greek dramatists who emerged during the stormy years of the Greek junta in the 1960s and 70s. This collection includes five episodes from his extremely popular TV series 'This One and. That One' (1972-73) featuring two tragicomical vagabonds, Luke and Solon, who try to come to terms in their own way with the confusing realities of contemporary life. 'The Lady Doesn't Mourn', a short play in two acts set in an elevator stuck between two floors, traces the breakdown of the status quo of a 'typical' married couple through the catalytic presence of a 'Third Person'.
