    Theater you can afford to see— plays you can’t afford to miss! NEWS for immediate release August 2013 Contact Emily Morrison 703-998-4555 (TACT Office) or 323-363-4404 (mobile) E-mail [email protected] and [email protected] Press photos http://www.americancentury.org/photos/horn (available after 9/10 The American Century Theater presents the Neil Simon comedy Come Blow Your Horn The American Century Theater launches its 19th season to laughter with the Neil Simon comedy, Come Blow Your Horn, directed by Rip Claassen, opening Thursday, September 12 and running through October 12 at Gunston Arts Center’s Theatre Two in Arlington. Come Blow Your Horn is The American Century Theater’s first production of a Neil Simon play, and it was Neil Simon’s first Broadway show, a hit that ran for 641 performances. Not only was the comedy a warm and funny evening with real human insight, it was also the beginning of one of the most successful playwriting careers in the history of the American stage. Come Blow Your Horn tells the story of a young man's decision to leave his parents’ home to live in New York with his brother. Buddy is a 21-year-old virgin, while older brother Alan is living the swinging bachelor’s life of the early 1960s, as memorialized in a dozen Rock Hudson movies. Foreshadowing the more sensitive and thoughtful comedy of Simon’s prime years that produced such plays as Brighton Beach Memoirs, the play contrasts Alan’s dissatisfaction with his hedonistic existence and search for meaningful love with Buddy’s gradual corruption, as he becomes a clone of the rogue Alan pretends to be.

    DC Theatre Scene! " Search this website # ABOUT THEATRE TICKET REVIEWS BACKSTAGE DISCUSS VISITING SUPPORT US GUIDES DEALS WASHINGTON? US A Raisin in the Sun at Compass Rose Theater September 23, 2014 by Jeffrey Walker Share this: There is a scene in Lorraine Hansberry’s landmark drama A Raisin in the Sun where the troubled, young husband and father Walter Lee Younger feels he has lost any chance of finding his dream. But his loving, lioness Standing O of a mother, Lena, looks him in the eye and tells him she never stopped trusting him and she will never stop loving him. I'm Still… On paper, the exchange is certainly well-written. But when 00:00 06:14 it is performed as it is at Compass Rose Theater, the love, That So… hope, devotion, and pain shared by mother and son is a palpable 00:00 04:22 and visible reminder of those same qualities in all of us. As directed by Lottie 00:00 00:00 Porch and acted with grace and passion by a gifted ensemble, A Raisin in the Sun is a theatrical gift to Keep up treasure.
