"The Duck Variations" and Sexual Perversity in Chicago" June 12, 2009

Presented by the A.R.T. at its Zero Arrow Club with a cash bar (corner of Arrow Street and Mass. Ave, near Harvard square) you can spend a fun evening watching two one act comedies by the great social commentator David Mamet (The Unit, American Buffalo, Glengarry Glen Ross, Homicide). Both plays deal with relationships - early and late in life. "The Duck Variations" presents George and Emil, two elderly friends sitting on a lakeshore bench watching ducks and telling tales. Their conversation skirts around the issues of friendship and the fear of being alone. "Sexual Perversity in Chicago" opens with lovers flirting on a park bench and ends with their all night argument, inviting our laughter at the hopelessness of their feeble attempts at romantic relationships.
