The Lost Boy, according to press notes, tells the "compelling story of a well-known author, who in the shadow of his own international writing success, confronts his haunted past, his brother's untimely death, a family that has scorned him, and his own dissatisfaction with the illusions of fame and fortune."
The play premiered Oct. 28, 2005, at the Helen Hayes Theater Company in Nyack, NY.
