The Sunshine Boys Presented by MainStage (May 2-17)

Willie Clark and Al Lewis are an aging vaudeville comedy duo whose partnership ended bitterly after over 40 years. A dozen years later, Willie’s nephew, a young theatrical agent, tries to reunite them for a TV special. Despite their animosity, they agree to perform together once more. Willie is cantankerous, irritable, and resistant to change, while Al is more easygoing and resigned to their past. Their rehearsals as the re-stage their classic comedy sketch are fraught with tension and bickering, leading to hilarious situations as they struggle to recapture their former chemistry. The play humorously explores themes of friendship, aging, and the passage of time. A hilarious and poignant comedy reflecting on the complexities of relationships and the inevitability of change.
