Meet Eugene Jerome and his family, fighting the hard times and sometimes each other - with laughter, tears, and love. It is 1937 in Brooklyn during the heart of the Depression. Fifteen-year-old Eugene Jerome lives in Brighton Beach with his family. He is witty, perceptive, obsessed with sex, and forever fantasizing his baseball-diamond triumphs as star pitcher for the New York Yankees. As our guide through his "memoirs," Eugene takes us through a series of trenchant observations and insights that show his family meeting life's challenges with pride, spirit, and a marvelous sense of humor. But as World War II looms ever closer, Eugene sees his own innocence slipping away as the first important era of his life ends - and a new one begins.

Brighton Beach Memoirs
This was a fun play to read. I have seen the movie a few times and wish I could see the play version. Neil Simon wrote Brighton Beach Memoirs. it is bases on his own childhood. It is seen through 15 year old Eugene's eyes. It takes place in 1937 over two days a week apart. Eugene lives in a house in Brighton Beach New York, with his Father, mother, Brother Stanley, his aunt Blanche and two cousins Nora, and Laurie. Times are hard his dad works hard to support the extended family. Eugene breaks the fourth wall by talking to the audience. inviting us into his home. There are issues in the home that happen over the two days. Chances for a job, pay loss, a possible date for his widowed aunt. and Eugene's raging hormones. Most of the play is done with Neil Simon's sense of humor. I liked getting to read this play. Since i have seen the movie a few times I could now read the humorous dialogue in this well done play.
