WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Brighton Beach Memoirs centers on young Jewish teen Eugene Morris Jerome and his extended family living in a crowded home in the Brighton Beach section of Brooklyn in 1937: his overworked father, Jack; overbearing mother, Kate; his older brother Stanley; Kate's widowed sister Blanche and her daughters, Nora and Laurie. As Eugene spends his time daydreaming about a baseball career, he must also cope with his family's troubles, his awkward discovery of the opposite sex and his developing identity as a writer.
Neil Simon's Brighton Beach Memoirs is performed in repertory with Broadway Bound.
A limited number of $30.00 tickets will be made available for purchase by students, available at the box office on the day of the performance only. Two tickets per valid student ID. Student rush tickets are subject to availability and the number of student tickets for each performance may vary.

Fantastic!
It was a truly riveting production; David Cromer really brought out the emotion of the play without losing any of its inherent humor. I brought my kids, and they loved it. Noah Robbins rocks!

You can practically hear the ocean in director David Cromer's beautifully calibrated revival of Neil Simon's autobiographical 1983 play, Brighton Beach Memoirs, now at the Nederlander Theatre. Then again, even if you could, the sound of the waves coming to the shore would be drowned out by the noisy goings-on in the nearby Jerome household, where the Great Depression, the approach of World War II, and the dreams, longings, and troubles of this archetypal Jewish family are constantly colliding.
Indeed, during this one tumultuous week in 1937, the members of the Jerome clan are faced individually and collectively with a series of life-altering challenges. In particular, 15-year-old Eugene Mor[...]
