Library Friends Sponsor FREE Comedy Play

2008-08-29 / Community

Enjoy a FREE one-act play "The 75 th" by Israel Horovitz at 2 p.m. on Thursday, September 18, 2008 at the Garden City Public Library located at 60 Seventh St., Garden City, NY. This public program is funded by The Friends of the Garden City Public Library. The performance will be approximately one hour. Seating and parking is limited and on a first-come first-served basis. No tickets are required. For directions phone: (516) 742-8405.

Cooky and Lenny Klein will star as the performers in this delightful, heartwarming comedy which is about the 75 th reunion of Wakefield High School. A number of guests are expected, but only two show up. They barely remember each other and, due to their advanced years, have difficulty remembering anything else very accurately. Through their reminiscences, the audience will get to know these people while they develop an attraction to each other, proving you're never too old to fall in love.

Cooky, a retired public school principal and 4 th runner-up in the 2005 Ms. NY Senior America Contest, and Lenny, a retired high school chemistry teacher, have been performing on Long Island for more than 40 years. The Kleins most recently appeared as Muriel and Herbert in "I'm Herbert" as part of Township Theatre Group's touring trio of one-acts "Seeing Ourselves."
