THE PERFORMANCE "BENCH" The Bench is a play written by playwright Alexander Gelman. The events take place in a city park during one summer evening. The main character, a forty-five-year-old man, under the influence, begins to communicate with different women sitting on benches. At first glance, the simple plot develops into a deep human story.
