Stephen Adly Guirgis – January 7 – February 6, 2010
"A scorching and dark new
comedy…Mr. Guirgis has one of the finest imaginations for dialogue to
come along in years." —NY Times. "Stephen Guirgis may be the
best playwright in America under forty." —NY Magazine.
The Ortiz Funeral Room is in big trouble: The body of beloved community activist
and nun Sister Rose has been stolen from the viewing room, and waiting for
her proper return are some of New York City's most emotionally charged, life-challenged
neighborhood denizens, trying to find a place to put their grief, checkered
pasts and their uncertain futures. Among the equally hilarious and tragic
twelve characters, you'll meet Rooftop, a chronically unfaithful but otherwise
popular Los Angeles DJ, looking to reconcile with the love of his life; Pinky
and Edwin, two brothers tragically linked forever; and the outrageously angry
Norca, who doesn't let the fact that she slept with her best friend's husband
deter her from the full expectation of being immediately forgiven of her sin
by her best friend, Inez, still in pain fifteen years later. The rest of the
crowd in this dark, insightful and very funny comedy inevitably square off
on each other, motivated by rage, pain and a scary desire to come clean—perhaps
for the first time.
