Louis Phillips

The Ballroom in Saint Patrick's Cathedral Louis Phillips

The play centers on a family of Greek-Americans in a small Massachusetts town during the closing days of World War II. "It is a naturalistic play, whose setting and details of character and dialogue could not be more specific and lifelike. Yet the variety of moods and feelings working their way out is such as to give it a glittering intensity that passes realism. It is astonishingly textured ..." -Richard Eder, The New York Times "Louis Phillips's THE BALLROOM IN SAINT PATRICK'S CATHEDRAL is ... a drama of originality and glowing beauty." -Emory Lewis, The Bergen County Record
