Review
“The Drawer Boy is a beautifully written play. It moves from toughness and hilarity to something devastating and tender. By taking off from an earlier Passe Muraille Drama, The Farm Show, and seeing that theatrical event from a new angle, it is one of the few plays to create an authentic tradition in our culture.â€

Product Description

A Modern Classic,
By Jonathan Faris (Providence, RI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The drawer boy (Paperback)
I saw a production of The Drawer Boy at Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago, Illinois starring John Mahoney (of Frasier fame), Frank Galati, and Johnny Galecki. The script is beautifully crafted, with a subtle and skillful coloring. The simple, truthful insights it provides into friendships with all their complexities are touching. I'd highly recommend this play to read, or better yet, watch.
