EVENT:

“A Play Is a Poem”

By Ethan Coen

Directed by Neil Pepe

World Premiere

In Association with Atlantic Theater Company

DESCRIPTION:

“A Play Is a Poem” is a new collection of five one acts by Ethan Coen set in the hillbilly hollows of Appalachia, the executive suites of Hollywood, a New York tenement apartment, the smoke-filled office of a Los Angeles private eye and a magnolia-scented gazebo in Natchez, Mississippi. Each place holds a different story – together they offer an eccentric look at life across America that only Ethan Coen could deliver.
