The Last Sunday in June and Other Plays : Including If Memory Serves and The Twilight of the Golds

Rating:
Summary: This guy can write!
Review: Last Sunday in June was my favorite theater experience of whatever year I saw it in! And Twilight of the Golds was truly searing and thought-provoking! This man is a writer we'll be hearing more about. Comparisons to Neal Simon are obvious but don't do justice to this writer whose heart is as big as his sense of humour and his compassion for his characters reminds me more of Checkov than Neal Simon. (So if he's so good, why no 5 stars? Simple: I'm an honest man and I haven't read this book yet, and am reviewing it only on the basis of the two productions I SAW. So, when I read If Memory Serves I'll re-check in on this review if it's a warranted 5th star.) But buy this book! You won't be disappointed! This man's one liners and characters are as good as they get.
