“Cohen at the Music Box Theatre, New York, on 5 January, 1967 with one change in the cast: the part of Teddy was played by Michael Craig. SUMMER An old house in North London. A large room, extending the width of the stage. The back wall, which contained the door, has been removed. A square arch shape remains. Beyond it, the hall. In the hall a staircase, ascending up left, well in view. The front door up right. A coatstand, hooks, etc. In the room a window, right. Odd tables, chairs. Two large... armchairs. A large sofa, left. Against the right wall a large sideboard, the upper half of which contains a mirror. Up left, a radiogram. Act One Evening. LENNY is sitting on the sofa with a newspaper, a pencil in his hand. He wears a dark suit. He makes occasional marks on the back page. MAX comes in, from the direction of the kitchen. He goes to sideboard, opens top drawer, rummages in it, closes it. He wears an old cardigan and a cap, and carries a stick. He walks downstage, stands, looks about the room.MoreLessRead More Read Less
