''The Connection'' is a 1959 play by Jack Gelber. It was first produced by the Living Theatre, directed by Living Theatre co-founder Judith Malina, and designed by co-founder Julian Beck. The play has a play-within-a-play format, with characters Jim Dunn as the "producer" and Jaybird as the "writer". They are attempting to stage a production about the underbelly of society using "real" addicts. Some of the addicts are jazz musicians. They all (except for the "producer", "writer", and two "photographers") have one thing in common: they are waiting around for their drug dealer, their "connection". The dialogue of the characters is interspersed with performances of jazz. The music was composed by jazz pianist Freddie Redd. ==Production credits== Written by Jack Gelber Directed by Judith Malina Designed by Julian Beck Original Cast: Jim Dunn - Leonard Hicks Jaybird - Ira Lewis Leach - Warren Finnerty Solly - Jerome Raphel Sam - John McCurry Ernie - Garry Goodrow 1st Musician - Freddie Redd (composer, piano) 4th Musician - Michael Mattos (bass) First Photographer - Louis McKenzie Second Photographer - Jamil Zakkai 2nd Musician - Jackie McLean (alto saxophone) 3rd Musician - Larry Ritchie (drums) Harry - Henry Proach Sister Salvation - Barbara Winchester Cowboy - Carl Lee Man in audience - Martin Sheen (uncredited) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Connection (play)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
