How do events change us? Do we look back with hope or despair at the way in which our lives are affected by the time in which we live? These are the questions posed by FIFTH OF JULY, a funny and moving play written by Sag Harbor's own Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Lanford Wilson. Part comedy, part drama, The New York Times calls FIFTH OF JULY, "the wisest and funniest play of its generation."
