Join us for the Final Weekend of

The Prisoner of Second Avenue
By: Neil Simon, Directed By: Sonia Smith

 

 

April 25 – 28
Thurs – Sat at 7:30; Sun at 2:00

Mel Edison is a well-paid executive of a high-end Manhattan firm, which has suddenly hit the skids, and he gets the ax. His wife Edna takes a job to tide them over, then she too is sacked. Compounded by the air-pollution killing his plants, and with the walls of the apartment being paper-thin, allowing him a constant earful of his neighbors private lives, things can’t seem to get any worse…


Then he’s robbed, and his psychiatrist dies with $23,000 of his money. Mel does the only thing left for him to do-he has a nervous breakdown. Can Edna and Mel’s four crazy siblings pull Mel out of this rut? Or is this breakdown the best thing that ever happened to him?

 

“A gift for taking a grave subject and, without losing sight of its basic seriousness, treating it with hearty but sympathetic humor…A talent for writing a wonderful funny line…full of humor and intelligence. Fine fun.” – New York Post
