WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Liza Colon-Zayas, Sol Frieder, Elaine Kussack, and Sam Waterston star in the world premiere of Athol Fugard's Have You Seen Us?.
Henry Parsons (Waterston) comes in to a mall diner for his usual -- a turkey sandwich -- and insulting banter with Adela, the Mexican-American waitress. The two creep toward a fragile understanding until Solly and Rachel, an eastern European Jewish couple, sit down to eat. The couple's entrance forces Henry to a reckoning with the indelible remains of his past; and, for a moment, unites four lost souls.

The show's focus is on Classics professor Henry Parsons (Sam Waterston, gamely affecting a South African accent but failing to achieve a native's ease), a cantankerous, mostly dry drunk who gets his jollies insulting Adela (Liza Colon-Zayas, who's given little to do beyond appearing stalwart), the Mexican waitress at the [...]
