The Four of Us

What if all your dreams came true...for your best friend? THE FOUR OF US follows Ben, whose first novel vaults him into literary stardom, and his friend David, a struggling playwright, who is thrilled by Ben's success...and crushed by it. From the dreams of aspiring youth to the realities of adulthood, this poignant two-man comedy explores friendship and memory, the gap between our hopes and our lives, and the struggles between our egos and our capacity to love. Time Out New York called the recent Off-Broadway run of THE FOUR OF US "an extremely clever and enjoyable study of friendship...funny, touching, and wickedly smart," and the NY Times Isherwood called it "a clever comic drama with a nifty twist...a touching, appealing play." // Firefly's production of THE FOUR OF US, presented in co-production with VS. Theatre Company, will introduce the work of award-winning playwright Itamar Moses to Los Angeles. Tom Stoppard has called Itamar Moses a "splash in the making," and, at 31, Mr. Moses is one of Americas leading playwrights of any age. This fall, he has five simultaneous premieres across the US, including three in California (at Berkeley Rep, The Old Globe in San Diego, and this production in LA), one in Chicago (at American Theatre Company), and Off-Broadway at Manhattan Theatre Club. // THE FOUR OF US is directed by Michelle Tattenbaum, and features Steven Klein and Ryan Johnston. The design team includes Mark Guirguis (set and props), Leigh Allen (lights), Rachel Myers (costumes), and Joel Spence (sound). The production stage manager is Ilona Pacek.
