Be Sure to Make Time for American Clock
October 11, 2007

Save the Date - Saturday, November 10th at 7:30 pm or Sunday, November 11th at 2 pm for the Abbey Players' stage production of Arthur Miller's moving play, American Clock.

American Clock by Arthur Miller originally premiered at the Spoleto Festival in South Carolina in 1980, and was staged in New York City shortly thereafter.

The play shines a hard light on the devastating effect of the Great Depression on all Americans, from shoeshine boys to stockbrokers. Inspired by the epic documentary Hard Times by Studs Terkel, the play focuses on members of a well-to-do Manhattan family struggling to hold on to their dignity as they are forced to move into more modest quarters with their Brooklyn relatives.

One of Miller's later plays,  American Clock expounds upon the playwright's signature theme of family unity in the face of extreme adversity.

So pencil us in for Saturday, November 10th at 7:30 pm and Sunday, November 11th at 2 pm. You may want to take in both performances! Don't miss our unforgettable production of this haunting work by one of America's greatest playwrights.

Below, the talented Abbey Players and our energetic stage crew are already hard at work under the direction of Head of Performing Arts Jay Bragan and Technical Director Dom Joseph Byron.
