 “Brighton Beach Memoirs”

(Excerpt) “Anything associated with New York wasn’t popular in the Bay State on Super Bowl weekend, but audiences at Marblehead Little Theatre’s production of Neil Simon’s comedy, “Brighton Beach Memoirs,” enjoyed the warmth and laughter of this tale set in 1937 Brooklyn. The production ran Jan. 27 through Feb. 5. Actor Owen Grover, a Boston College senior portraying 15-year-old Eugene Morris Jerome, wore a New York Yankees baseball cap, and designer Andrew Barnett’s handsome, two-tiered set sported a Yankees pennant on the wall. Nobody in the packed theater cared. The props were necessary to Simon’s charming coming-of-age tale that resonates today, despite radically changed mores.”  Click here for the complete review. 

Ever wonder what happens in the weeks leading up to the big show? How do the actors gear up for a performance? Well now is your opportunity to find out! Check out the video below as Owen Grover guides you through the first rehearsals of Brighton Beach Memoirs.
