As our designers work to put the finishing touches on the set and props, incorporate the lighting, sound, costumes and make-up, our wonderful cast is working to put the finishing finesse into each of their characters. Led by the inimitable Joyce Maltby, each member of this cast brings just the right "something" to their character. And what characters they are!
Set in Sunnyside, Queens, on that day in 1965 when Pope Paul VI visited New York, John Guare's early, breakthrough play features mockingly observed nuns, a lethal (but farcical) political bombing, a G.I. earmarked for Vietnam and, as a protagonist, a zookeeper who dreams in vain of making it big in Hollywood as a songwriter. As if that weren't enough countercultural loopiness, the zoo keeper, Artie Shaughnessy, has a wife named Bananas who really is bananas and destined for the institution that provides the play's title.
