Reinaldo Povod Selected Works

Robert De Niro, Ralph Macchio, and Burt Young starred in this harrowing yet often hilarious first play by a young Hispanic playwright in a sold out, limited engagement on Broadway. Cuba is a small time cocaine and marijuana dealer whose pride and joy is his 16 year old son Teddy. Cuba has great hopes for his son; what he doesn't know is that the boy has already succumbed to the lure of the streets and is fast becoming a heroin junkie.

This extraordinary trilogy of short plays includes South of Tomorrow, Nijinsky Choked His Chicken, and Poppa Dio! The characters are street roughs, junkies, and prostitutes, navigating their tough and tragic lives in these lyrical, violent, and forceful plays.

Super Fishbowl Sunday is a timely & scathingly hilarious new play about America's obsession with getting rich quick and making it big. The play is written by Richard Barbour and the late Reinaldo Povod (award winning playwright of Cuba & His Teddy Bear, which starred Robert DeNiro). Watch as Larry Fishbowl, a smooth-talking corporate raider turned luxury car salesman with a penchant for high stakes action, and his ultra right-wing partner, Buck, ride high and sink low from Wall Street to the mean streets, following their involvement in the Savings and Loans scandals.
