"Six Degrees of Separation" Presented By Bare Bones Theater Company
Six Degrees of Separation is a witty, biting, yet ultimately sincere commentary on what drives people: the desire for money, fame, social standing, comfort, and, for the lucky, a desire for meaningful human connection.
Guare based the premise of his play on an actual incident. A young African-American man gained access to the homes of upper-class New Yorkers by pretending to be the son of actor Sidney Poitier, but the creation of the play is an imaginative tour de force.
Guare uses the props of the late twentieth century, such as social issues and art, to create a comprehensive picture of a fragmented society, one in which those simple six degrees that bind people together are overlooked, blatantly ignored, and, very occasionally, celebrated.
"Six Degrees of Separation" is directed by Jeff Bennett, founder of Bare Bones Theater.
