    A mock 1930s farce in which hilarity reigns supreme. "...if you can believe that a play can be part ROOM SERVICE, part Das Capital and part His Girl Friday, you've got the premise of the wildly funny AN AMERICAN COMEDY. The play is such an accurate pastiche of the time, that some audiences have taken it for a genuine comedy written in the thirties. There's so many doors slammed, fires put out, trunks shut, typewriters ruined, disrobings, and darts thrown that at times you think you've wandered into a lost Marx Brothers comedy..." Diane Wright, The Herald

    "Wonderful...HUNGRY, a work in which nothing much happens beyond some contemplative pre-dinner chatter, may well be the most resonantly topical and emotionally engaging play of this election year." Ben Brantley, New York Times "[HUNGRY's] thousand acts of extreme daily realism, from chopping vegetables to the constant dance of interpersonal negotiation, amount to a kind of human politics, dramatizing, as many more 'dramatic' plays cannot, the historic conflict and consolations of living in our country right now." Jesse Green, New York Magazine "[Nelson] may just be quietly building a masterwork." Linda Winer, Newsday "If you want to understand the forces driving the current presidential election, pay close attention to this play." The Daily Beast "Richard Nelson's quietly incandescent play HUNGRY, a play that feels as fresh as if it was written this morning..." Jeremy Gerard, Deadline/Hollywood "...delivers the sort of intimacy rarely encountered on the stage." Frank Scheck, The Hollywood Reporter

    Burke, a middle-aged college English professor, and his lover, Mia, an unmarried mother in her mid-20s, seem in no way made for each another and yet, it seems, can't live without each other. "In his remarkable new two-character play, LIFE SENTENCES, Richard Nelson explores an intimate relationship between two people no dating service would ever put together and makes their connection tender, believable and as complex as most relationships usually are." -Gloria Cole, U P I "Richard Nelson has a penchant for writing about characters who can talk with considerable brilliance about almost anything except what's really on their minds." -Barbara Siegel & Scott Siegel, Drama-Logue "Full of Nelson's sad, wry wisdom, and his odd way of looking at life through a two-way mirror." -Clive Barnes, New York Post

    The Left is personified in Richard Nelson's idealistic and intellectual characters, whose fascinating friendships are as fraught as the political history through which they've lived. "You can't watch [LEFT] without thinking about Lillian Hellman, Mary McCarthy, and Diana Trilling. Richard Nelson ... hasn't brought the famous, undignified Hellman/McCarthy/Trilling feud directly onstage, but he invokes their noisy ghosts. They resonate. It's uncanny. Imagine I'M NOT RAPPAPORT with Simon Gray's wit and Doris Lessing's brains. We first meet Marianne, a retired college president, and Eddie, who writes essays on pornography for The New York Review of Books, in the Adirondacks. They are waiting for Elinor, an editor at a Manhattan publishing house, to arrive by motorboat and explain her memoir. In her memoir, Elinor savages her oldest friend, Marianne, as typical of a whole class of I'm-all-right-Jack Upper West side intellectuals who betrayed their youthful idealism in the dreary Cold War years. Eddie, an ex-husband as well as an ex-radical, has been deleted, even from Elinor's index. From the beginning of their ménage à trois, Eddie has always been the odd man out. [LEFT] is as much consumed by female friendship as it is by left history. Almost immediately, we flash back fifty years to their first visit to the Adirondacks, fresh from college politics in the middle of the Spanish Civil War, looking for money to start a magazine a lot like Partisan Review. We'll go back and forth the rest of the play, until all six of them, the pure of heart and their revised editions, are in the same room, at the same time, a crowd of regrets. These people talk about Joseph Stalin and the Sierra Club, Amnesty International and Saran Wrap, South Africa and skinny-dipping. What they're really talking about is friendship in history. If the person is political, how much so, at what cost and is there any forgiveness? I felt like a spy, switching sides so often in my sympathies." -John Leonard, New York Magazine
