The NYTimes calls David Greenspan “one of the most stylized wits on the Off-Broadway stage”; playwright Tony Kushner called him “probably all-around the most talented theatre artists of my generation”; even the great Joseph Papp wrote "David creates the kind of moments that you don't see on stage anywhere else. “

What will your quote be?

Don't miss the limited run (5 weeks only!) of this hilarious and deeply moving play written and performed by one of the most celebrated artists in town.

Special on Weekends, Greenspan performs The Myopia in a DOUBLE FEATURE w/ PLAYS by Gertrude Stein

PLAYS is Gertrude Stein's most whimsical, irreverent and ahead-of-its-time lecture on theater; a hidden gem of theatricality and wit that only Stein could have delivered –  that is until David Greenspan came along.

MORE ABOUT THE SHOW

"The Myopia is a succession of shape-shifting, interlocking narratives -- zany and outrageous -- that encompass family drama, Broadway musical, Expressionist nightmare and a set of disquisitions on the art of the stage that amount to a major new edition of Aristotle.…a tragedy that will send you home thinking you've been on an amusement-park ride. -The Village Voice

"David Greenspan isn't a mere actor. He's an appliance on the fritz. Plug him in and watch the mechanism go haywire…you half expect smoke to rise from a crack in his forehead." -NY Times

An actor of uncommon gifts…once seen, perhaps experienced is a better word, Mr. Greenspan is not forgotten." -NY Times

"David Greenspan is a dramatic poet whose skill is his ability to orchestrate the cacophony of voices that evoke the deepest pathos of warring realities. - The Guardian
