A rehearsed reading of Richard Nelson's quartet of plays

Alongside the run of The Gathered Leaves, PostScript Productions are delighted to present rehearsed readings of The Apple Family and The Gabriels by Richard Nelson, the critically acclaimed play cycles about loss, memory and remembrance in America’s recent past.

The Apple Family is a quartet of plays following the Apple family of Rhinebeck, New York, as they grapple with events both personal and political in their immediate present: the 2010 election (That Hopey Changey Thing), the tenth anniversary of 9/11 (Sweet and Sad), Obama’s re-election (Sorry), and the fiftieth anniversary of JFK’s assassination (Regular Singing).

Delicately constructed and precisely observed, the quartet of plays is a masterpiece of stage naturalism and a powerful reminder of theatre’s unique capacity for civic dialogue and public communion.

PostScript Productions is association with Park Theatre.
