The American Dream/The Sandbox Tickets

In The Sandbox, Edward Albee introduces one of America's most dysfunctional families, a grasping, materialistic married couple who stage a perverse seaside idyll destined to end in the demise of the wife's aged mother. The American Dream continues the story of The Sandbox's Mommy and Daddy, exploring the hollowness of the American dream and the fallacy of the ideal American family. Both of Albee's early one-act plays first premiered at off-Broadway's Cherry Lane Theatre in the 1960's. They return to the Cherry Lane as a double bill, directed by the playwright himself. Albee was recently represented off-Broadway by Second Stage Theatre's production of Peter and Jerry, an expanded version of his classic Zoo Story.
