The Synopsis:

The Time of Your Life
~ William Saroyan - large mixed cast

Strange, kindly Joe's search for happiness and answers to the far reaching enigmas of life takes him to Nick's waterfront saloon where his friend and errand boy, huge and simple, falls in love with a fragile lady of the evening

To protect their happiness, Joe almost shoots a vice raider. Wandering in and out of the saloon are vivid characters who want to get more living done and are as unsure as Joe about how to go about it

Winner of a Pulitzer Prize and of the Drama Critics' Circle Award

"One of the most enchanting theatrical works imaginable" ~ N.Y. Herald Tribune
