Marvin's Room

play by Scott McPherson - Janeane Garofalo, Lili Taylor, Celia Weston

 

It concerns two sisters, Bessie, their father's saintly caretaker who has leukemia, and Lee, a wisecracking, psychologically unstable free spirit who has not helped with the caretaking. It is based upon McPherson's experiences with older relatives who lived in Florida. McPherson cared for his partner, cartoonist and activist Daniel Sotomayor, who died from AIDS. His experiences living in the darkest days of the AIDS epidemic influenced his writing.McPherson himself died in 1992 of AIDS at age 33.

Marvin's Room had its premiere in Chicago in 1990, directed by David Petrarca. It then played off-Broadway at Playwrights Horizons, opening on 15 November 1991. It went on to run at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington. The play won the 1992 Outer Critics Circle Award for best play, the 1992 Drama Desk Award for best play and the Joseph Jefferson Award in Chicago for best original work. It was adapted for a film of the same title in 1996.
