Visiting Mr. Green
User Rating: 3.6 (1 votes)Author(s):
Jeff Baron
Mr. Green, an elderly, retired dry cleaner wanders into traffic on New York’s Upper West Side and is almost hit by a car driven by Ross Gardiner, a twenty-nine-year-old corporate executive. The young man is charged with reckless driving, and is given a community service sentence of helping Mr. Green once a week for six months. The old man’s wife has just died, he lives in a fourth floor walk-up, and he needs help with groceries and such. The play follows the two men’s growing and changing relationship over several months beginning with the first of these weekly visits. What starts out as a comedy about two men who do not want to be in the same room together, turns into a gripping and moving drama as they get to know each other, come to care about each other, and open old wounds they’ve been hiding and nursing for years.
