Description

SET IN 1953 AND TRAVELING TO 1985, THE PULITZER PRIZE-NOMINATED AND TONY AWARD-WINNER FOR BEST PLAY, "SIDE MAN", IS AN INTIMATE, AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL FAMILY DRAMA SPANNING 35 YEARS.

IT IS THE HEARTBREAKING STORY OF A SPLINTERED FAMILY AS TOLD THROUGH THE EYES OF CLIFFORD, THE ONLY SON OF GENE, A JAZZ TRUMPET PLAYER, AND TERRY, AN ALCOHOLIC MOTHER.

ALTERNATING BETWEEN THEIR NEW YORK CITY APARTMENT AND A SMOKE-FILLED MUSIC CLUB, CLIFFORD THEIR SON-NARRATES THE STORY OF HIS BROKEN FAMILY AND THE DECLINE OF JAZZ AS POPULAR ENTERTAINMENT. HIS STORY IS, PERHAPS, THE MOST HEARTBREAKING OF THEM ALL.
