Patricia Neal Stage
Monday Night Special
Sid & Howard
by Marc Kirkeby
Directed by Scott Barrow
with Stephan Amenta, Scott Barrow, Marc Carver and Molly Purves
An antic, razor-sharp comedy that imagines a could-have-been meeting of terror-meister H.P. Lovecraft, New Yorker wit S.J. Perelman, and the mystery woman who changed Lovecraft’s life, in 1920s Providence, the Paris of the Seekonk. While respecting the historical record, the play cheerfully throws in whatever else comes to hand, past or present. No kitchen sinks will be harmed.
