“Human Events”
Where’s the humanity in the Humanities Department? A.R. Gurney, the
renowned author of Sylvia, Ancestral Voices and The Dining Room, has set
his latest play’s witticisms and sparkling dialogue in the groves of
academia, at a small New England college. Into this world comes a
young, dynamic British enthusiast eager to revamp and revitalize the
slightly moribund humanities department. As the events unfold,
assumptions are challenged, prejudices surface, and the humanity of
one’s motives are called into question. The master of American domestic
drama returns to George Street Playhouse with this brand new work, prior
to its New York engagement.
