DAVID GREENSPAN. FOUR SAINTS IN THREE ACTS

September 15, 2022 - October 9, 2022

“I will be performing my solo rendition of Gertrude Stein’s Four Saints in Three Acts September 15 – October 9. The play is being produced by the Lucille Lortel Foundation – and hosted by Target Margin Theater at their Doxie space in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. See below for tickets – as low as $15.

This production is the result of a 4-year collaboration with director Ken Rus Schmoll – and the culmination of an 11-year project I began with my solo rendition of Barry Conner’s The Patsy, followed by my solo rendition of Eugene O’Neill’s Strange Interlude. Four Saints completes this trilogy: three radically different plays – all written in the late 1920’s.

I’ll tell you up front: the play features no discernible story – and there is little indication of characterization. Stein eschewed story and action for what she called “emotion and time.” If that sounds highfalutin – trust me it’s not. It’s playful, it’s tender, it’s dramatic and poignant.

The play runs 90 minutes without a single trim. I sure hope you can attend. I think you’ll have a heck of a good time.”
