Lost in Yonkers

Like many of Simon’s plays, Lost In Yonkers is drawn from his experiences growing up in New York City. Set During World War II, Arty and Jay are sent to live with their frightfully intimidating Grandma and sweet but mentally slow Aunt Bella. This masterwork is an unsentimental examination of lives in an oppressive household, climaxing with a dramatic confrontation between the bitter mother and lonely daughter. This is Neil Simon at his very best!
