This Tony Award-winning play introduces audiences to the unforgettable characters Nat and Midge, two senior citizens who meet in Central Park to escape and combat the sometimes unpleasant realities of life. Together they fight injustice, spin fantasies, and form a friendship full of comic genius. Our production reunites acclaimed actors Tom Parker and Billy Harden as Nat and Midge--roles they've played for director Don Toner in 1989 and 1998 productions. As Toner says, "They're damn near old enough to play the parts now!"

Blackfriars Theatre continues its 65th Season with Herb Gardner's compelling comedy I'm Not Rappaport! Nat Moyer, a feisty Jewish retiree with a tendency to exaggerate, and elderly Midge Carter, a half-blind African-American building superintendent spend their afternoons sharing a park bench and a relationship based on playful verbal sparring. These appealing seniors humorously take on the world and its many threats, including society's treatment of the aging, the difficulties dealing with adult children who think they know what's best for their parents, and the dangers that lurk in urban areas.
