About the Play:

A young man's decision about his future sparks an eruption of unsolicited advice, matchmaking, general meddling and unending food from his four Italian-American grandparents who provide all the guilt, love, and exasperation that comes with being a member of any family.

About the Playwright:

Joe DiPietro (Playwright) is a prolific writer having penned four plays since 1995. He is best known for the long-running Off-Broadway hits, I Love You, You're Perfect. Now Change. and Over the River and Through the Woods. He wrote the book to the "new" Gershwin musical,They All Laughed! Other projects include The Thing About Men (with composer Jimmy Roberts) and the Broadway-bound Can't Help Falling in Love, an original musical comedy featuring the songs of Elvis Presley. Speaking about the characters in Over the River and Through the Woods, Mr. DiPietro says, "The biggest difference between these generations is their concept of family and home. Our grandparents believed that the family was central, and work is something you just do to provide for them. For our generation, it's a lot more complicated."

Circle Theatre's Playback:

Food for Thought will be the topic of conversation following the August 31st Saturday matinee performance.

Gallery:

Theatre patrons are invited to enjoy paintings by the Society of Watercolor Artists, now on display in Circle's lobby gallery.
