Drama / Characters: 3 male, 3 female
Scenery: Interior spaces
The author of Loose Ends and Moonchildren dramatizes the
desperate attempts of a 16 year-old boy to reconcile his divorced
parents, a somber chronicle about disillusionment of people whose
hopes and dreams are tainted by the prism of time. The events of
the 1950's are explored through the eyes of Martin's parents,
radicals who have chosen very different ways to cope with the
changed and changing times. Elise is still a bohemian, a rebel
without a cause who wants to live for something more than survival.
Andrew has dropped back into the system and accepted the
conventionality of day-to-day existence. Caught between these
irreconcilables, Martin is unable to bring his parents back
together but must find and follow his own life path.
"Mr. Weller finds in one family's disintegration a paradigm of
the postwar collapse of liberal idealism. This is without question
Mr. Weller's most intelligent play."-The New York Times
"Emotionally charged; a touching, lovely work."-New York
