SUMMARY:Waiting for Lefty
DESCRIPTION:By Clifford Odets | Directed by Janet Miller\n\nWaiting for Lef
 ty is a series of scenes that blend into a powerful mosaic of the American
  working class. We begin in a hiring hall where a union leader \\(obviousl
 y on the payroll of the bosses\\) is trying to convince a committee of cab
  drivers not to strike - all while they wait for their leader \\(Lefty\\) 
 to arrive.\n\nThrough flashback and vignette\, we then visit a discouraged
  taxi driver in confrontation with his wife\, who wants him to show some b
 ackbone and stand up to his employer\; an employee promised a major promot
 ion in exchange for spying on a fellow worker\; a young cabbie and his wou
 ld-be bride who lack the wherewithal to get married\; and a senior doctor 
 charged with dismissing a bright\, promising intern. All together\, this l
 ook at the American working class of the 1930s is considered one of the mo
 st celebrated and significant plays of mid-century American theatre.
