Description:

A different time is evoked in this marvelously theatrical and winning show, a live broadcast of a The Mutual Manhattan Variety Cavalcade from the Hotel Astor's Algonquin Room on December 21, 1942. The spirit of that bygone era when the world was at war and pop music meant "Strike Up the Band" and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" (both are in this show) is accurately captured as the harassed producer copes with a drunk lead singer, the delivery boy who wants a chance in front of the mike, the second banana who dreams of singing a ballad, and the trumpet playing sound effects man who chooses a fighter plane over Glenn Miller.

Description:

Winner of the 1977 Tony Award for Best Play and the Pulitzer Prize for Best Drama, The Shadow Box is a poetic and often very funny meditation on life, love, hope, and the ultimate journey. In the course of one fresh spring day three terminally ill patients and their loved ones gather at hospice cottages on the grounds of a hospital. The manner in which each individual confronts the impending loss of a loved one is as diverse as human nature itself—touching, tearful, courageous, angry, blindly hopeful, and at times, surprisingly hilarious.
