The Guys
By Anne Nelson July 10-16, 2005 Directed by Dan Hartenbower Featuring: Larry Kelsey as Nick Jenn Hartenbower as Joan
Less than two weeks after the September 11th attacks, New Yorkers are still in shock. One of them, an editor named Joan, receives an unexpected phone call on behalf of Nick, a fire captain who has lost most of his men in the attack. He's looking for a writer to help him with the eulogies he must present at their memorial services. As Nick and Joan make their way through the emotional landscape of grief, they draw on humor, tango, the appreciation of craft in all its forms - and the enduring bonds of common humanity. A play that tackles the horror of September 11th with an intimacy that's both unsettling and healing. Produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service.
