Lost In Yonkers
“The best play Simon ever wrote,” cheered one critic of the Pulitzer-prize winning comedy drama, Lost in Yonkers, which inaugurates the 2019 season of The Brookfield Theatre for the Arts. Here, laughter and tears combine in Neil Simon’s deft observations of the human heart that touchingly portrays the plight of two young teenage boys after they are abandoned by their father to the care of their stern grandmother and their flighty aunt.
Lost in Yonkers premiers Friday, March 1st starring Rigby Wilkins as Bella, Pat Covino as Grandma, Nico Apicella as Jay, Dylan Fischetto as Arty, Michael Reilly as Louie, David Cheris as Eddie, and Lynn Nissenbaum as Gert. It is directed by Dana O’Neal.
