City Lights Theater Company - Over the River and Through the Woods

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. For complete information and to purchase tickets, visit the CLTC website.
