Moonchildren
''Moonchildren'' (originally titled ''Cancer'') is a play by Brooklyn-based playwright Michael Weller. The play chronicles a year in the life of the "moonchildren" referred to in the title: eight college students living communally together in an off-campus attic in the mid-1960s.〔Gussow, Mel. ("Theater; Weller 'Moonchildren' Is Staged in Capital" ), ''The New York Times'', November 26, 1971]〕〔("''Plus ça change''...Moonchildren" (review by Doug DeVita) )〕
==Productions==
The work was first performed in 1971 with the title ''Cancer'' in London at the Royal Court Theater under the direction of Martin Rosen. Weller changed the name to ''Moonchildren'' shortly thereafter for the work's American premiere at the Arena Stage (Washington, DC) in November 1971, which was directed by Alan Schneider.〔
The Arena Stage production moved to the Royale Theatre on Broadway the following year, giving its first of 28 performances on February 11, 1972.〔(New York Times May 15, 1988 )〕 The cast included Kevin Conway as Mike, Maureen Anderman as Ruth, Edward Herrmann as Cootie, Christopher Guest as Norman, Stephen Collins as Dick, Jill Eikenberry as Kathy, James Woods as Bob Rettie, Cara Duff-MacCormick as Shelly, Donegan Smith as Ralph, Robert Prosky as Mr. Willis, Ron McLarty as Lucky, Louis Zorich as Bream, Peter Alzado as Effing, Salem Ludwig as Uncle Murry, George Curley as Cootie's Father, and Michael Tucker as Milkman. Duff-MacCormick garnered a Tony Award nomination for best Featured Actress in a play〔(1972 Tony Award Winners - Browse by Year )〕 and Weller won a Drama Desk Award for Most Promising Playwright. Anderman, Duff-MacCormick, and Woods all won Theatre World Awards for their portrayals.
