The Price February 28, 2012

Two long estranged brothers — one a cop of limited means, the other a successful doctor — meet in the attic of a New York City brownstone to sort through their deceased parents' belongings. Decades of sacrifice, resentment, bitterness and jealousies ignite when the fraternal debate moves beyond the costs and values of the items to the values and successes of their own lives. The Price examines the balance between two distinctly opposing points of view as the brothers argue the worth of self-preservation versus familial responsibility.

Director, Michael Menendian, states, "I have wanted to stage The Price for nearly 20 years. I consider this to be one of his finest plays, dealing with universal issues of family loyalty, sibling rivalry and commitment to a certain code of conduct. I want the audience to question what they would do in the shoes of the characters."
