The set and costumes bring you into the world of the 1940s with ease, but the best part of Lost in Yonkers was the cast that embraced the heartbreaking story of generational trauma and made it come alive."
The Cosmic Circus

Dubbed “the best play Simon ever wrote,” (New York Post) this Pulitzer Prize-winning dramedy beautifully captures the humor, conflict and heartbreak of a Jewish family living in Yonkers in 1942. Riddled with debt, Eddie takes to the road as a salesman, leaving his two sons to stay with tough-as-nails Grandma Kurnitz for a year. Left to contend with Grandma and cousins, Bella with her secret romance, and Louie, a small-time gangster, the boys are in for a summer they’ll never forget. Winner of the 1991 Tony Award for Best Play, the show remains as poignant now as ever.
Lost in Yonkers is presented in arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc.
