Two Shakespearean Actors

Six Degrees of Separation 

Herb Gardner

From the award winning author of I'm Not Rappaport and A Thousand Clowns comes a powerful and funny play about three generations of a Jewish family on the Lower East Side. Incorporating autobiographical elements, Eddie Goldberg's story dramatizes what it's like to melt as well as simmer in American society while it encompasses the universals of relations between fathers and sons.

The setting is a new "luxury" high-rise apartment with Spanish decor in Coney Island, the home of a middle-class Jewish family struggling to put up a good front even though continually short of cash. The father, Herbie, who sells lighting fixtures, is chronically overworked and underpaid; his wife, Doris, tells herself (and whomever may be listening) that she loves her life-even though, as the play begins, she is shredding her wedding dress to make a Halloween costume; their older son, Stewie, eagerly awaits his bar mitzvah with an eye less on its religious aspects than on the potential loot to be gained in gifts; and the youngest son, Mitchell, is absorbed in writing a musical version of Death of a Salesman (entitled Willy!) for his class at school. While they all strive to present an appearance of contentment and closeness, the family is beset by underlying tensions which burst forth when Herbie seizes his son's bar mitzvah money and, after an unseemly confrontation with everyone about how the bills for the for the celebration should be paid, storms out of the apartment Mitchell's pain prompts him to show us a good portion of his new musical about the picnic the Loman family should have

"Bah humbug" best describes Christmas this year at the Gorskis'. Phil's diatribes against the loss of traditional values and the mysterious and menacing "them out there." Their older son Andy is on his way home, dreading the introduction of his parents--staunch Catholics--to his fiancée Randi, a confirmed atheist. The only person honestly looking forward to the holiday is Mickey, Andy's younger brother, who's never outgrown a childlike delight in the season. Micky is retarded."--Publisher's description."

Characteristic of Gurney's inimitable style of intertwining the present with the past, this lovely play (set primarily in the elegant ballroom of the old George Washington Hotel and performed to recorded music) poses a most poignant question: Is recapturing the qualities of grace, beauty, and cibility too painful for today's society; when charm and elegance no longer seem desirable or important? For one fleeting winter's night, Cooper Jones reunites a group of old...

Jean Cocteau

Jeremy Sams

Written in eight opium-sodden days, Jean Cocteau's Les Parents Terribles is a frank, ironic, bruisingly melodramatic play dealing with incest and the diseased love from which it stems. The play was first performed at the Théâtre des Ambassadeurs, Paris, in November 1938. Its run was soon terminated amid accusations of immorality, and the production was transferred to the Théâtre des Bouffes-Parisiens in January 1939, where it continued until the outbreak of World War II. This English version by Jeremy Sams was first performed at the National Theatre, London, in 1994, directed by Sean Mathias. This edition of the play includes an introduction by Simon Callow.

Harold Pinter

In a drama set in two bedrooms and a dark space, a man on his deathbed reviews his life, loves, and betrayals with his wife, while his two conspiratorial and emotionless sons sit in the shadows rationalizing their love-hate relationship with their now dying father and their inability to take steps to end the estrangement.
