The Friedman Family Fortune
by David Gow
The Friedman Family Fortune is a
drama which focuses on the emotional fallout that results
when a publicly adored, iconic, family business passes from
the hands of one generation to the next. The play examines
with finely detailed psychological realism and wry humour,
the intricate relationships that family members have forged
one with another; as well as how those relationships are reshaped
by the succession of the family’s seat of power.
“…David Gow’s The
Friedman Family Fortune… springs to life, fully developed
and dramatically arresting, with some of the sharpest, most
literate dialogue to be heard in a Canadian play in years.
That Gow manages to keep this familial free-for-all from bogging
down in turgid melodrama by keeping it brilliantly alive with
a delicious sense of humour, is an additional indication of
his instinctive theatrical genius.”
