Tuesday, April 17th, 2007 at 7:30 PM - Lost In Yonkers - Since 1961, when Come Blow Your Horn opened on Broadway, no one has had more plays produced on the Great White Way than the estimable Neil Simon. He has made us roar with laughter and see our world through the prism of humor. In the mid-eighties Simon wrote more personally and deeply about family, growing up, and the human condition. Without any sacrifice to the comedic genius that marks his writing, Simon's work took on a greater spectrum of human interaction. The true genius of Simon is his humanity. Whether through laughter or his investigation into the heart of family, it is Simon's understanding, wisdom, and good humor that mark him as a master playwright. Lost in Yonkers is howlingly funny, and Simon's heartfelt tale of a dysfunctional family (each character more eccentric and fascinating than the other) in 1940s New York finds him at the height of his powers as a playwright. For this effort he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in drama, placing him forever among the ranks of not only America's funniest playwrights but also its best. "If Broadway ever erects a monument to the patron saint of laughter, Neil Simon would have to be it." says TIME Magazine. Ticket Prices: $25 - $20 - $15 - $10.
