The Prom expertly captures all the humor and heart of a classic musical comedy with a message that resonates now more than ever. Congrats on a SOLD OUT run! Show Program |
Nov. 30, Dec. 1, & 2Brighton Beach Memoirs
by Neil Simon Here is a portrait of the writer as a young teen in 1937 living with his family in a crowded, lower middle-class Brooklyn walk-up. Eugene Jerome, standing in for the author, is the narrator and central character. Dreaming of baseball and girls, Eugene must cope with the mundane existence of his family life in Brooklyn: formidable mother, overworked father, and his worldly older brother Stanley. Throw into the mix his widowed Aunt Blanche, her two young but rapidly aging daughters and you have a recipe for hilarity, served up Simon-style. This bittersweet memoir evocatively captures the life of a struggling Jewish household. Rated PG-13 for language and mature content. SOLD OUT! Show Program |
