Description: "The apocalypse is imminent in David Ives’ three-part reworking of Carl Sternheim’s Scenes from the Heroic Lives of the Middle Classes. Leaping through time, we visit three generations of the Mask family: from a household in 1950s Boston, to 1987 Wall Street, all the way to a modern techie home in the Pacific Palisades. Capitalism is on trial, secrets are exposed, and existentialism runs in the family in this rambunctious satire for the ages."--publisher description.
