The Assembled Parties

Synopsis
THE STORY: THE ASSEMBLED PARTIES welcomes us to the world of the Bascovs, an Upper West Side Jewish family in 1980.
In a sprawling Central Park West apartment, former movie star Julie Bascov and her sister-in-law Faye bring their families together for their traditional holiday dinner.
But tonight, things are not usual.
A houseguest has joined the festivities for the first time and he unwittingly—or perhaps by design—insinuates himself into the family drama.
Twenty years later, as 2001 approaches, the Bascovs' seemingly picture-perfect life may be about to crumble.
A stunning play infused with humor, THE ASSEMBLED PARTIES is an incisive portrait of a family grasping for stability at the dawn of a new millennium.
