The House of Blue Leaves

Winner of the Tony, Obie, and Drama Desk Award for best American play!

The Pope’s 1965 visit to New York City brings the hope of answered prayers and a few unexpected guests to an apartment in Sunnyside, Queens, where Artie Shaughnessy, a zookeeper, pines for a new life as a popular songwriter.

Called "enchantingly zany and original” by the New York Times, The House of Blue Leaves is a heartbreaking, hilarious human comedy that explores the lengths people will go in pursuit of the American Dream.
