Clash By Night

John Mossman directs Clash By Night, by Clifford Odets, directed by John Mossman.

A tale of desperation, passion and love, this rarely produced piece tells the story of Jerry and Mae, a working class couple whose strained marriage is tested further by the introduction of Jerry’s spirited friend, Earl. Set in Staten Island just before the American entry into World War II, Clash by Night bursts with some of Odets’s most complex characters.
