Why should you see Joe DiPietro's warm, funny and poignant play? Because no matter your cuisine of choice, you’ll see yourself (or your family) in the dinner scene. Because BroadwayWorld calls the play “full of warmth, wit and familial truth.” And because it’s the perfect show to share with family and friends — and it’s not the same holiday show you’ve seen a hundred times.
A single, Italian-American guy from New Jersey, Nick still sees both sets of his grandparents every Sunday for dinner. Then he’s offered a dream job thousands of miles away in Seattle. This news doesn’t go over well with his grandparents. Thus begins a series of schemes to keep Nick nearby. Frank, Aida, Nunzio and Emma do their level best, including bringing to dinner the lovely Caitlin O’Hare as bait.
Directed by Jeffrey Bracco, who also used to have dinner every Sunday with his Italian-American grandparents. Cast: Karen DeHart, John Mannion, Deb Anderson, Joseph “Joe” Walters, Filip Hofman and Delaney Bantillo. Understudies: Keenan Flagg, Tom Gough, Patricia Tyler and Alexandra Velazquez.
This production is generously supported by Producer Toggle Hagan.
