Notes: | based on Honey Pie and Superfrog Saves Tokyo from the novel after the quake by Haruki Murakami, adapted for the stage by Frank Galati | |||||
Synopsis: | In this adaptation of two of Haruki Murakami's brilliant short stories, Tony Awardwinning director Frank Galati has fashioned an enchanting and deeply moving play that follows the lives of characters struggling with the aftermath of the 1995 earthquake in Kobe, Japan, that nearly destroyed the city. Rich in dreamlike imagery and haunting in its evocation of survival in the wake of terrible disaster, after the quake makes masterful use of storytelling to reveal and explore our primal fears. | |||||

Notes: | from book by John Steinbeck | |||||
| Renowned first as a novel, and then as a prize-winning motion picture, the story of the Joad family and their flight from the dust bowl of Oklahoma is familiar to all. Desperately proud, but reduced to poverty by the loss of their farm, the Joads pile their few possessions on a battered old truck and head west for California, hoping to find work and a better life. Led by the indomitable Ma Joad, who is determined to keep the family together at any cost, and by the volatile young Tom Joad, an ex-convict who grows increasingly impatient with the intolerance and exploitation which they encounter on their trek, the Joads must deal with death and terrible deprivation before reaching their destination-where their waning hopes are dealt a final blow by the stark realities of the Great Depression. And yet, despite the anguish and suffering which it depicts, the play becomes in the final essence a soaring and deeply moving affirmation of the indomitability of the human spirit, and of the essential goodness and strength which-then as now-resides in the hearts and minds of the "common man," throughout the world. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Mikhail Bulgakov | |||||
Synopsis: | The action centers on the difficulties encountered by Professor Preobrajansky, an innovative medical practitioner who specializes in sexual rejuvenation (by organ implantation), in his running battle with the management committee of his apartment house-who want the Professor to give up some of his many rooms. Fortunately the professor (who counters their demands by insisting that he needs even more space) has been able to enhance the sex lives of some quite highly placed people (with occasional side effects, such as having their hair turn green) and his life has been protected and enriched by such rarities as fresh meat and French wines. But when the professor takes in a stray dog, Sharik, and transplants human testes and a pituitary gland into his scrawny body, his troubles begin to multiply. Sharik not only learns to walk upright and talk, but becomes "Comrade Sharikov," the head of the Moscow Communal Property Administration in charge of exterminating homeless cats. He also spouts Marx and Engels, guzzles | |||||
