Lakeside Little Theatre's final show of its 49th season, "Social Security," written by Andrew Bergman and directed by Phil Shepherd, opened on March 28 and immediately had the audience roaring with laughter.
The curtain opens on the third floor apartment of art gallery owners David (Roger Larson) and Barbara (Candace Luciano) Kahn, on Manhattan's East Side. They live a wealthy lifestyle with only themselves to please.
Barbara's sister, housewife Trudy Heyman (Georgette Richmond), takes care of the sisters' termagant "Mum," Sophie Greengrass (Phyllis Silverman). Cheeseparing Trudy and husband Martin (Zane Pumiglia) live in Mineola. Accountant Martin, preoccupied with the value of the paintings in the apartment, constantly asks what they're worth.
