A young boy from Brooklyn comes of age in the first play in Neil Simons semi-autobiographical Eugene Trilogy-followed by Biloxi Blues and Broadway Bound.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.Winner of the New York Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Play and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding New Play
