Italian American Reconciliation

Written by John Patrick Shanley

November - December, 2012

Even though she ripped his heart out and left him cold over three years ago, Huey can’t be a man again until he gets her back. Enlisting the help of his best friend Aldo, Huey woos her one final time in this fanciful, light-hearted, and zestfully comic play. The play, by the author of the critically acclaimed film Moonstruck, is part tall tale and part a slice of New York Americana, Italian style.

All My Sons

Written by Arthur Miller

March - April, 2013

Based on a true story, All My Sons is the sad Post-World War II tale of the Kellers, a seemingly “All American” family. But the father, Joe Keller, has concealed a great sin. During the war, he allowed his factory to ship faulty airplane cylinders to the U.S. Armed Forces. Because of this, over twenty American pilots died.  

Finian's Rainbow

Book by E.Y. Harburg and Fred Saidy
Music by Burton Lane
Lyrics by E.Y. Harburg

May - June, 2013

Did you ever wonder "How Are Things in Glocca Morra?" or what would happen under an "'Old Devil Moon," or "When the Idle Poor Become the Idle Rich?" Enter the irresistible world of two Irish immigrants who come to America and live with poor, goodhearted American farmers; southern bigots-and a leprechaun! Confusion and complications abound, but all ends happily in one of America's classic and most original musicals. With a brilliant set of songs, Finian’s Rainbow is as timely now as when it was written in 1947.
