Brighton Beach Memoirs Brighton Beach Memoirs is part one of Neil Simon's autobiographical trilogy that reveals his early life as a Brooklyn teenager in 1937 living with his family in crowded, lower middle-class circumstances. Eugene, the narrator and central character, fantasizes about baseball and of girls his age. The play illustrates a week in the life of a lower middle-class Jewish household that includes Eugene's immediate family and his widowed aunt and her two young daughters. It is an appealing play that deftly mixes drama with comedy. "Simultaneously poignant and funny. The characters are fully dimensional, believable... An outstanding show." - Variety Downloads Bios - coming soon Images
