33 Variations

Title: 33 Variations
Author: Kaufman, Moises
Price: $19.95

Drama. Full Length. 4 men, 4 women: 8 total. Flexible Set.

A mother coming to terms with her daughter. A composer coming to terms with his genius. And, even though they're separated by 200 years, these two people share an obsession that might, even just for a moment, make time stand still. Drama, memory and music combine to transport you from present-day New York to nineteenth-century Austria in this extraordinary American play about passion, parenthood and the moments of beauty that can transform a life.


REVIEW
\"You don't have to know Beethoven from Bach to find yourself thoroughly absorbed by the theatricality with which Kaufman has tied a historic event - the legendary mystery surrounding one of Beethoven's compositions - to a drama about a fatally ill Beethoven scholar, her relationship with her daughter and the daughter's burgeoning romance.\" - CurtainUp.

\"It's a compellingly original and thoroughly watchable play for today that deserves to remembered.\" - Talkin' Broadway.
