Produktbeschreibung

Emmy Winner, Christopher Canaan, wandered into New Hope in 2016. He ended up living there for eight years, during which time he wrote three distinct plays about his adopted home. "Reckonings In New Hope" explores the lives of three best boyhood friends who return for their 5Oth high school reunion only to reveal that they each have a secret that haunts them.

"The Kaufmans: An Intimate Portrait." George S. Kaufman was an American playwright and journalist, who became the stage director of most of his plays and musical comedies after the mid-1920s. He was the most successful craftsman of the American theatre in the era between World Wars I and II, and many of his plays were Broadway hits. He was also, despite his unassuming physical appearance, quite the ladies' man who had an account with the Polly Adler, the most famous "uptown Madam" of her time. His affair with movie star Mary Astor became an international scandal which he and his wife, Bea, who was his best friend and manager, escaped by finding a place in New Hope Barley Sheaf.

"Sprinkles & Glaze" When Sue (Sprinkles) and Ed (Glaze) meet in a New Hope donut shop as they are just entering high school, they could never have imagined that they would spend a life time together. The play follows the trials and tribulations of what it means to be in love, and be married, framed in the bucolic setting of New Hope. The play has many of the similar themes that are experienced in my favorite American play, "Our Town."
