Six Degrees of Separation. John Guare’s award-winning dark comedy is inspired by a true story. It follows the trail of a young African-American con man who insinuates himself into the lives of a wealthy, white New York couple, claiming he is the son of actor Sidney Poitier, and that he has just been mugged and all his money is gone. No subject is left untouched in this comic, fast-paced and affecting piece. Six Degrees is directed by Stuart Bousel, who directed last season’s award-winning Grey Gardens. Six Degrees of Separation runs May 19-June 18.
Custom Made’s revival takes advantage of our intimate space with a cocktail-party themed environment, with the cast in elegant formal wear, designed by award-wining costumer Brooke Jennings. Also unique to this production will be director Bousel’s concept to have most of the cast on stage throughout the performance, which will enhance the direct address structure of Guare’s play, as Flan and Ouisa tell their comic-tragic story.
