Download or read book The Odd Couple on Stage and Screen written by Bob Leszczak and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-08-23 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by the real life post-divorce experiences of television comedy writer Danny Simon, The Odd Couple has touched multiple generations of fans. Playwright Neil Simon embellished his brother Danny's pseudo-sitcom situation and created an oil-and-water twosome with memorable characters showcasing the foibles of mankind. The original Broadway production enjoyed a run of 964 performances. The story of the cohabitation of Felix Ungar and Oscar Madison translated extremely well to the silver screen, and then in 1970 to television, where it brought weekly laughs and mirth to an even larger audience for five seasons in prime time. This thorough history details The Odd Couple in all its forms over the decades. It provides capsule biographies of the stage, film and television casts and crew, as well as an episode guide and a wealth of little-known information.

Book Synopsis Ripcord (TCG Edition) by : David Lindsay-Abaire
Download or read book Ripcord (TCG Edition) written by David Lindsay-Abaire and published by Theatre Communications Group. This book was released on 2017-02-06 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "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."—New York Times Set in the Bristol Place Assisted Living Facility, this glorious and biting new comedy from David Lindsay-Abaire centers around Abby, who takes pride in her residence in one of the most coveted rooms in the rest home. Things turn sour quickly when she must take in Marilyn, a new roommate to share her precious space. In a satirical conflict of territory and control, Lindsay-Abaire spins a benign, typically mundane setting into an absurdist, colorful battleground. This high-stakes comedy examines our expectations of what it means to grow old in twenty-first century America, and what happens when a sense of possession collides with a mania of obsession. David Lindsay-Abaire's plays include Good People, Fuddy Meers, Kimberly Akimbo, Wonder of the World, High Fidelity, A Devil Inside, and Rabbit Hole, winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Lindsay-Abaire wrote the book for Shrek the Musical, and the screen adaptation of Rabbit Hole starring Nicole Kidman. Lindsay-Abaire is a proud New Dramatists alum, a graduate of Sarah Lawrence College and the Juilliard School, as well as a member of the WGA and the Dramatists Guild Council.

Book excerpt: A portrait of three couples successively occupying a suite at the Plaza. A suburban couple take the suite while their house is being painted and it turns out to be the one in which they honeymooned 23 (or was it 24?) years before and was yesterday the anniversary, or is it today? This tale of marriage in tatters is followed by the exploits of a Hollywood producer who, after three marriages, is looking for fresh fields. He calls a childhood sweetheart, now a suburban housewife, for a little sexual diversion. Over the years she has idolized him from afar and is now more than the match he bargained for. The last couple is a mother and father fighting about the best way to get their daughter out of the bathroom and down to the ballroom where guests await her or as Mother yells, "I want you to come out of that bathroom and get married!"--Publisher's description.

Book Synopsis For the First Time on Television... by : Garry Berman
Download or read book For the First Time on Television... written by Garry Berman and published by BearManor Media. This book was released on 2016-03-28 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What was the very first situation comedy on American television? What was the first police drama? When was the first program broadcast in color? It takes only a moment of pondering such questions to realize how little we really know about the history of the medium that entertains us, informs us, and keeps us company at some point during each day and night. Every generation since the end of World War II has seen television become an integral part of our lives. However, even the most avid TV viewers are unaware of when, and under what circumstances, each onscreen television milestone has taken place. For the First Time on Television is a history of television presented with a fresh approach, by extensively examining the history of nearly 100 of television's "firsts," ranging from the first person ever to appear on a television screen, to the day the first HDTV screen made its debut, and everything in between. Here you'll find little-known but fascinating kernels of information regarding the groundbreaking programs, individuals, and events that have become an important part of TV history, and that still affect what we see on television today. You'll probably find yourself indulging in these "firsts" the way you'd treat an open bag of potato chips-by discovering how it is nearly impossible to enjoy just one or two without reaching for more. About the Author Garry Berman is a pop culture historian and freelance writer whose previous books include Best of the Britcoms: From Fawlty Towers to Absolutely Fabulous, We're Going to See the Beatles!, Perfect Fool: The Life and Career of Ed Wynn, and Between the Laughs. He has also contributed articles to Nostalgia Digest magazine, Beatlefan magazine, and several pop culture web sites. He lives in New Jersey with his wife, Karen.

Their desperate father, Eddie, works as a traveling salesman to pay off debts incurred following the death of his wife. Grandma is a severe, frightfully intimidating immigrant who terrified her children as they were growing up, damaging each of them to varying degrees. Bella is a sweet but mentally slow and highly excitable woman who longs to marry an usher at the local movie house so she can escape the oppressive household and create a life and family of her own. Her brother Louie is a small-time, tough-talking hoodlum who is on the run, while her sister Gert suffers from a breathing problem with causes more psychological than physical problems. Missing much of the sentimentality of the plays comprising Simon's earlier Eugene trilogy, Lost in Yonkers climaxes with a dramatic confrontation between embittered mother and lonely daughter that creates a permanent fissure in this highly dysfunctional family.
