*Mature Audiences*

“Thunders with life.” – ABC TV

“By far the finest play of the New York season, beautifully realized drama of sensitive perceptions often as funny as it is moving.” – Washington Post

“Extraordinary. An overwhelming emotional experience. Truly startling and in its uncompromising way, very funny.” – Boston Globe

Michael Cristofer is an actor, director and writer well known for his Pulitzer Prize-winning play The Shadow Box, as well as Breaking Up, Ice and The Lady and the Clarinet. He was artistic advisor, and then co-artistic director of River Arts Repertory in Woodstock, New York. Noted screenplays includeThe Shadow Box, Golden Globe winner Falling in Love, and Cassanova. A member of the Actor’s Studio, you may have seen him recently in NBC’s series Smash as Jerry Rand.

In this compelling dramatic triptych, the individual lives of three terminally ill patients and their loved ones are deftly explored with energy, warmth and humor. The play spans one 24-hour period in three separate cottages on the grounds of a residential medical center, where patients and their families may stay if they agree to document their thoughts and feelings through interviews with an unseen doctor. It is these interviews which skillfully tie the three plots together. The characters are diverse and colorful. Celebrated by critics for its insight, perceptiveness, and humor in dealing with controversial subject matter, “The Shadow Box” earned Cristofer both a Pulitzer Prize and a Tony Award in 1977.
