I Remember Mama |
Gold in the Hills
2011 |
|
by John van Druten,
adapted from Kathryn Forbes' book Mama's Bank Account
a comedy directed by Roy Bailey |
an 1890s melodrama by
J. Frank Davis
produced by Mike Calnan & Walter Johnston |
|
Mama is the glue
holding her precocious family together in 1910 San Francisco.
Her compassion and wisdom prevail through illness, poverty,
romance, life-changing decisions of her children and sisters,
and the arrival of her intimidating Uncle Chris with his
mysterious female companion. |
Gold in the Hills,
the Guinness Book of World Records longest-running show, has
played since 1936. Set in the 1890s, it has a relentless hero, a
winsome heroine, a ruthless villain, and the wilder side of city
life in the infamous New York Bowery. |
