LTW presents The House of Blue Leaves

 

January 4 - February 10, 2018

The House of Blue Leaves

By John Guare

This wildly funny dark comedy tells the tale of Artie Shaughnessy, a zookeeper by day and a songwriter with visions of glory by night. Artie dreams of escaping his humdrum life in Queens, and making it big writing songs for the movies in Hollywood. It's 1965. Pope Paul VI is visiting New York. The Vietnam War is about to begin in earnest. Can Artie's old high school buddy, now a Hollywood movie producer, give him a shot at the big time? Or will a blessing from the Pope do the trick?

"A brilliant play...beautifully fashioned...Wacky and sometimes sad... combined hilarity, poignancy, outrage and tragedy." - The New York Daily News

"Enchantingly zany and original farce." - The New York Times
