By Jon Guare. When a young African-American man shows up at the New York apartment of well-do-do-couple Ouisa and Flan Kitterdige, he immediately charms the couple with his stories and claim of being Sidney Poitier’s son. Telling the couple he has been mugged and is out of money, Paul gains the trust of Ouisa and Flan and finds a place to spend the night. But when the light of day comes and Paul’s stories begin to unravel, his saviors start to see they may be part of an elaborate con game. As the truth reveals itself in this funny and frank play, questions arise about what it truly means to have a charmed life.
