Boston Court Performing Arts Center-Mainstage (Pasadena, CA)
The Fonz has nothing to do with this existential comic masterpiece that stars two renowned performers: Emmy, Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award winner Tony Shalhoub (Monk, Men in Black, Wings) and Brooke Adams (Days of Heaven, Monk). A brilliant play by Samuel Beckett — the Nobel Prize-winning author of Waiting For Godot — this Happy Days, directed by Andrei Belgrader, blends existential tragedy with absurdist comedy as it tells the painfully comic story of Winnie — a woman buried up to her bosom in dirt, passing the time with the contents of her bag, her quick wit and her husband Willie. Beckett uses this droll, allegorical story to continue his relentless search for the meaning of existence, probing the tenuous relationships that bind one person to another, and each to the universe — in a tale newly relevant to a generation concerned with catastrophic climate change.
