Synopsis:
Fifteen-year-old Eugene Jerome is desperately trying to uncover life's mysteries, but his family keeps hiding
the clues. Even so, he manages to keep his priorities - baseball and girls - firmly in order throughout Neil
Simon's hilarious adaptation of his Broadway hit about growing up in Brooklyn during the late 1930s.
Life is definitely never dull with seven people living under the same roof. Dad works two jobs to make ends
meet; older brother Stanley is eager to dispense sage advice; and Aunt Blanche tries to cope as a single
parent. Brighton Beach Memoirs is a wonderful semi-autobiographical comedy with heart, wit and hysterical
insights into family and growing up - just a little off-center.
