Three One-Act Plays: Riverside Drive Old Saybrook Central Park West

Three One-Act Plays: Riverside Drive Old Saybrook Central Park West

Three delightful one-act plays set in and around New York, in which sophisticated characters confound one another in ways only Woody Allen could imagine

Woody Allenâ€™s first dramatic writing published in years, â€œRiverside Drive,â€ â€œOld Saybrook,â€ and â€œCentral Park Westâ€ are humorous, insightful, and unusually readable plays about infidelity. The characters, archetypal New Yorkers all, start out talking innocently enough, but soon the most unexpected things ariseâ€”and the reader enjoys every minute of it (though not all the characters do).

These plays (successfully produced on the New York stage and in regional theaters on the East Coast) dramatize Allenâ€™s continuing preoccupation with people who rationalize their actions, hide what theyâ€™re doing, and inevitably slip into sexual deceptionâ€”all of it revealed in Allenâ€™s quintessentially pell-mell dialogue.
