About Side Man

This lovely and poignant memory play is set in 1953 and travelling to 1985 unfolds through the eyes of Clifford, the only son of Gene, a jazz trumpet player, and Terry, an alcoholic mother. It alternates between their New York City apartment and a music club. Gene's music career on a big-band circuit crumbles with the advent of Elvis Presley and rock-and-roll. For Gene, music is not just a job, it is his life. When the adult Clifford visits Gene in a run down jazz club after years of separation, he asks the old man to play his mother's favourite song, the old standard "Why Was I Born?" Clifford then asks, "Dad, why was I born?" It becomes Clifford's last, heart-breaking plea for his father's love.

A drama by Warren Leight. Festival Entry.
