Our Lady of 121st Street

Stephen Adly Guirgis Has Been Hailed As One Of The Most Promising Playwrights At Work In America Today. A Masterful Poet Of The Downtrodden, His Plays Portray Life On New York'S Hardscrabble Streets In A Manner Both Tender And Unflinching, While Continually Exploring The Often Startling Gulf Between Who We Are And How We Perceive Ourselves. Gathered In This Volume Is His Current Off-Broadway Hit, Our Lady Of 121St Street, A Comic Portrait Of The Graduates Of A Harlem Catholic School Reunited At The Funeral Of A Beloved Teacher, Along With His Two Previous Plays: The Philosophical Jailhouse Drama Jesus Hopped The A Train And In Arabia, We'D All Be Kings, An Iceman Cometh For The Giuliani Era That Looks At The Effect Of Times Square'S Gentrification On Its Less Desirable Inhabitants.
