Barbara and David introduce Sophie to suave artist Maurice Koenig, who offers to paint her portrait and soon begins to brighten her life in ways she never expected in her twilight years.
After twenty-six previews, the Broadway production, directed by Mike Nichols, opened on April 17, 1986 at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre, where it ran for 388 performances. The Oswego Players production of Social Security  is presented by special arrangement with Samuel French Inc..
