Description

This seminal work of the Off Broadway movement premiered in 1968 and was a long-running hit onstage, later filmed with the original cast. In 2010, the play made a triumphant return to New York City in an highly praised production produced by Drama Desk and Obie Award winning Transport Group.In his upper eastside Manhattan apartment, Michael is throwing a birthday party for Harold, a self-awoved ’32 year-old, pock-marked, Jew fairy’, complete with surprise gift: ‘Cowboy’ a street hustler. As the evening wears on, fueled by drugs and alcohol, bitter, unresolved resentments among the guests come to light when a game of ‘Truth’ goes terribly wrong.
