For an
Evening of Saroyan
“My Name is Saroyan – A Matter of Will”
by David Fox-Brenton
Tuesday, March 25
7:30 PM
Western Diocese Dickranian Complex
3325 North Glenoaks Boulevard
Burbank, California 91504
Play Synopsis:
This one-man play of some 75 minutes length is essentially a
monologue from the mind and creativity of William Saroyan. It is
staged as if the author was just disturbed at work in his study. A
one-way conversation ensues with him digressing about his past and
inserting 3 of his best
short stories for the listener/guest. In this way, we get to
experience what he is most famous for – his humorous
storytelling – but also hear the seriousness of his actual
thought process concerning Humanity’s slide downward and the
hope he offers for change in our collective thinking.
David Fox, a working actor with an extensive résumé in
both television and stage, has prepared a one-man play based on the
works of William Saroyan. Designed for an English speaking audience,
the play was commissioned by Fresno’s Saroyan Festival in
celebration of the 100th anniversary of Saroyan’s birth. Mr.
Fox reports that approximately 90% of the play’s text consists
of Saroyan’s own words. The play runs about 70 minutes.
There is no charge for this event; however, an RSVP would be
appreciated!
