A Memory of Two Mondays

January 26, 1976 - March 21, 1976 · The Phoenix Theatre
Directed by: Arwin Brown · Literature: Arthur Miller · Costume Design: Albert Wolsky · Production Design: James Tilton
The one-acter, based on Miller's own experiences, focuses on a group of desperate workers struggling to make a living in a Brooklyn automobile parts warehouse during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Concentrating more on character than plot, it explores the dreams of a young man yearning for a college education in the midst of people stumbling through life in a haze of hopelessness and despondency.
