A local townsperson wanders into reunion weekend at a small college, falls in love with the wife of a ’71 alum, and keeps coming back to the reunion over the next 75 years. The class of 1971 is so taken with this stranger’s peaceful and generous nature that they not only accept him as one of their own but elect him class president.
That’s what happens in The Reunion Guy, performed in May at LaGuardia Community College in Queens, N.Y., where playwright David Rimmer ’71 is an adjunct professor.
