Following up on last seasons acclaimed production of Brighton Beach Memoirs is the second in Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Neil Simon's semi-autobiographical trilogy. When we last met Eugene Jerome, he was coping with adolescence in 1930's Brooklyn. Now we join Eugene as he experiences the army as a young recruit, during World War II. At basic training in Biloxi, Mississippi, Eugene is determined to use his army experiences to help his writing career and keeps detailed memoirs about his experiences.

Eugene and his fellow soldiers-in-training suffer under a hard-nosed drill sergeant, Merwin J. Toomey; Along the way, Eugene is forced to learn about authority, danger, sex, assimilation, bigotry, homosexuality, and love. In the process, he discovers that life can be both ugly and tender.

"A fine comedy, and another step in the process of making Simon neither so simple, nor so simplistic." - New York Post

"A play that rings with a newer, deeper, sweeter truth." - New York Magazine
