From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Guys is a 2002 play by Ann Nelson about the effects of the 9/11 tragedy as viewed from the eyes of Joan, a reporter who is tasked with writing obituaries for fallen firefighters. It presented in the form of a dialogue between Joan and the surviving NYFD captain, Nick[1]. The play debuted off-Broadway at The Flea Theater, and enjoyed a commemorative rerun in 2006 on the 5th anniversary of 9/11. In the movie version and parts of the theatrical run Joan is played by Sigourney Weaver, who was nominated for a Golden Satellite Award for best performance by an actress for her role.
