The original memory play was the legendary playwright's first major success and is considered one of the great American plays of all time.

LA-based Jeff Award winning ensemble member Hans Fleischmann returned to Mary-Arrchie to direct this production, featuring an original score by Chicago musician Daniel Knox.
