AWAKE AND SING!

Awake and Sing! by Clifford Odets. Scenic Design by Meghan Jones and Lighting Design by Natalie Robin, Sound Design by Tom Carman. Directed by Max Shulman. Produced by Quintessance Theatre Group at the Sedgewick Theater Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. January 23 – February 24, 2019.

Regarded as one of the most influential American plays of the 20th century, Awake and Sing! chronicles the lives of the Bergers, a Jewish family struggling to survive The Great Depression. Gritty, heartbreaking and often hilarious, Odets’ 1935 masterpiece captures both the dreams and the struggles of an unforgettable American family. Can hope survive or will reality tear the complex and loving family apart? Film, Television & Stage legends, Buzz Roddy and Lawrence Pressman join Quintessence in bringing this powerful play to Philadelphia.
