Waiting For Lefty - Barnes & Benjamin (Part 5 of 7)

Waiting For Lefty
by Clifford Odets
Directed by Drew Vanderburg

In the fifth segment of my Lefty production, the realities of a hospital plagued by elitism and anti-semitism come down hard on the young and idealistic doctor Benjamin.

Performed in the Linhart Theater at Playwrights Horizons Theater School in April 2007. This project was my senior thesis directing project for my BFA in Drama from NYU.
