Summary:

"A double volume that features the final installments from Tony Award-winning playwright and director Richard Nelson's critically acclaimed Rhinebeck Panorama. Begun over twelve years ago, each play in Nelson's intricate and moving play cycle captures a snapshot in the lives of three families from a small upstate New York village: the Apple family, the Gabriels, and now the Michaels-a family with deep roots in the world of modern dance. The first play in this collection, "The Michaels: Conversations During Difficult Times," takes place in the kitchen of Rose Michael, a celebrated choreographer. A meal is prepared, modern dances are rehearsed, and dinner is eaten-all amidst conversations about art, death, family, politics, and the state of America. "What Happened?: The Michaels Abroad" brings the cycle to a close as the Michaels find themselves in Angers, France, in September 2021. They are attending a student dance festival and crawling out from under a deadly pandemic, which turned life as they knew it upside down"-- Provided by publisher.
