Barefoot in the Park

by Neil Simon

Barefoot in the Park is one of Simon's earliest hits, and remains the favorite of many.
Paul and Corie Bratter are newlyweds: he is a conservative button-down lawyer,
and she is a bubbly extrovert. They have just moved into a tiny New York fifth-floor
apartment with no elevator. All visitors arrive out of breath, on the verge of collapse.
(As Paul and Corie's mother trudge up the apartment stairs one evening,
she says: "I feel like we've died ... and gone to heaven ... only we had to climb up!")
In the space of three days of setting up housekeeping, Paul and Corie go through
every emotional stage of a young marriage. Add Corie's somewhat prudish mother and the
charming upstairs neighbor, Victor Velasco, and you get a delightful comedy that is guaranteed to bring lots of smiles.

The show opens on Friday, May 28 and plays for four weekends, closing on June 19.
Tickets are $12 each, and the box office opens to the public on Friday, May 21. Phone is 344-7751. (Students $9 on Thursday performances, Senior Citizens $9 on Sunday.
