Good People
Book (italiano):
<DIV><p>"A lyrical and understanding chronicler of people who somehow become displaced within their own lives. . . . Mr. Lindsay-Abaire has shown a special affinity for female characters suddenly forced to re-evaluate the roles by which they define themselves."—<I>The New York Times</I></p><p>With his latest play <I>Good People</I>, David Lindsay-Abaire returns to Manhattan Theatre Club where four of his previous works were produced, including his 2007 Pulitzer Prize-winning <I>Rabbit Hole</I>. The play premiered there in winter 2011 in a production directed by Daniel Sullivan (who also directed <I>Rabbit Hole</I>), and featuring Frances McDormand in the role of protagonist Margie Walsh. <I>Good People</I> is set in South Boston, the blue-collar neighborhood where Lindsay-Abaire himself grew up: Margie Walsh, let go from yet another job and facing eviction, decides to appeal to an old flame who has made good and left his Southie past behind. Lindsay-Abaire offers us both his "quiet three-dimensional depth" (<I>Los Angeles Times</I>) and his carefully observed humor in this exploration of life in America when you're on your last dollar.</p><p><B>David Lindsay-Abaire</B> is the author of <I>Fuddy Meers</I>, <I>Kimberly Akimbo</I>, <I>A Devil Inside</I>, <I>Wonder of the World</I>, and <I>Rabbit Hole</I>, in addition to the book for the musicals <I>High Fidelity</I> and <I>Shrek</I>. His plays have been produced throughout the United States and around the world.</p></DIV>
