The Autumn Garden

The Autumn Garden

Deaf West Theatre
5112 Lankershim Blvd. Los Angeles

A group of middle-aged Southerners come together in 1949 at a summer home on the Gulf of Mexico for their annual gathering. Compassionate and savagely funny, The Autumn Garden is Pulitzer Prize winner Lillian Hellman's masterpiece on how, in spite of everything, human beings still succeed in living together. Introspective and emotionally honest, this is America's answer to Chekhov's sprawl of longing, loss, and the simple and comic tragedy of being human.
