"Six Degrees of Separation is a landmark play of American theatre and producing it at Actor's Express is an exciting opportunity to explore what a great classic can mean to us in our times," said Artistic Director Freddie Ashley. "I can't wait to see this vital play burst into life on our stage."
Young Paul artfully cons himself into the lives of New York's bourgeois by claiming to know a wealthy couple's Ivy League children and being the son of Sydney Poitier. After he's caught seducing a hustler in their home, the charade is revealed and Paul is soon back on the street where he sets his sights on a young couple new to the city. From the award-winning writer of The House of Blue Leaves comes this bitterly funny comedy that explores the intimacy of the universe, and the comfort and chaos found within it.
