Called the Chekhov of American writers, the author of “The Natural” captured the passion and diversity of mid-century New York City. Master reader Ethan Bowen will bring these stories to life, with a jazzy/klezmer sound track to thrill audiences. BMT presents classics such as “Black is My Favorite Color” and “A Summer’s Reading”, stories dealing with themes of identity, race, love, and deceit in the heat of a New York City summer.
