Comic Drama
Characters: 3 male
Interior Set
Off-Broadway audiences gave this moving drama standing ovations. Two brothers live in a house in North Philly. Although adults, there is something child-like about these orphans. The eldest supports himself and his slightly retarded brother by petty thievery. One night he brings home a rich older man to get him drunk and rob him. It turns out that the man-Harold is very rich and on the lam from a hitman. Harold establishes the house as a base of operations and, in a strange, hilarious and moving way, becomes the father figure the boys have always yearned for.
"A weird, wonderful thriller filled with suspense, pathos and packing an emotional wallop."-WMCA Radio
"Keeps you transfixed."-New York Daily News
