The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window – Intiman Theatre and The Williams Project @ Erickson Theatre (Seattle – Capitol Hill)

By Lorraine Hansberry
Directed by Ryan Guzzo Purcell

It’s Greenwich Village in 1964, and Sidney Brustein’s living room is the place to be. The neighborhood bohemians gather here to drink, listen to records, and argue about politics, art, and sex. Soon, Sidney stumbles into owning a local newspaper and the arguments become more heated. With a marriage on the rocks, no money, and friends advocating for different causes, this aging idealist is forced to decide what he truly believes. Brimming with humor and pulling no punches, The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window asks us all: How much are you willing to sacrifice to live your ideals?
