| Description |
The play - an extended family portrait drawn mostly from the perspective of an adolescent boy - recalls Brighton Beach Memoirs, the first of his "autobiographical" trilogy which premiered on Broadway in 1983...the two teenage brothers, Jay and Arty go through the family resume while they sweat it out in their grandmother's living room and their father negotiates with Grandma Kurnitz behind her closed door. |
