The Vagabond Players continues its 104th season with Neil Simons acclaimed Broadway hit, BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS.Its 1937, and teenager Eugene Morris Jerome is obsessed with everything there is to know about girls, the New York Yankees and becoming a writer, while his crowded family struggles through the Great Depression and the fear of a pending war in Europe. Simons deeply moving and hilariously entertaining comedy is a funny, nostalgic, joyful and heartrending portrayal of adolescence and the all-to-real adult problems that accelerate it----proving once again that great humor is timeless.

BWW Review: A Sure-Footed BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS at Vagabond Players
January 18, 2020 Neil Simon's indecision about genre in Brighton Beach Memoirs was related to his problem being direct about his parents. A true account would necessarily have revealed their fighting, his father's desertions and infidelities, and the eventual failure of their marriage, and could only have been presented as a tragedy or melodrama. A comedy (and Brighton Beach is formally a comedy) would need to present a sanitized version of what Simon remembered; it would satisfy his audience (which expected comedies) and his parents, but it would also come further from the flavor Simon wanted to present. What we get in consequence is a play in three somewhat inconsistent genres.
