THOUSAND OAKS, CA. Pop the cork … the big celebration is about to begin! This January, Conejo Players Theatre kicks off its incredible 60th Anniversary Season with Broadway Bound — the third in Neil Simon’s hilarious autobiographical trilogy!
If that wasn’t special enough, a recent spin through the CPT Archives uncovered this astounding fact: Broadway Bound will be the whopping 300th mainstage show to tread the theatre’s storied boards …
Broadway Bound finds Eugene Jerome and his older brother Stanley trying to break into the world of show business as professional comedy writers while coping with their parents’ break-up — and eventual divorce. When their material is broadcast on the radio for the first time, the family is upset to hear a thinly-veiled portrait of themselves played for laughs! Tony® and Drama Desk Award nominee for Best Play in 1987, and a finalist for the ’87 Pulitzer Prize in Drama, Broadway Bound “contains some of the author’s most accomplished writing” (New York Times) and is “expectedly funny and unexpectedly moving” (New York Daily News).
With a stellar cast and creative team — including the return of Brighton Beach Memoirs (and Biloxi Blues) director Erin Fagundes and actors Bennie Glasner, James Cluster, Kathleen Bosworth, and Mark Maresca — Conejo Players’ Broadway Bound will tug at your heart strings and tickle your funny bone! #BroadwayBoundCPT #CPT60
