Brighton Beach Memoirs
is Neil Simon's love letter to his past
and is consider by many his most touching play.
It follows the adventures of the young playwright
as he recalls his adolescence in New York's Brighton Beach area
in 1937.
Eugene (the young Neil Simon) longs to break away from the apron strings that tie him to his family. He is pivotal in the telling of the story, which hints at his knowledge that a Great War is yet to come. Against that backdrop, the problems of Eugene and his family become even more touching and comic in their humanity. |
