"Over the River and Through the Woods" now playing at Three Notch Theatre
Missy and Eric Fallabel have been working hard as Stage Manager and Assistant Manager on this play: "When two sets of doting Italian-American grandparents and their grandson, Nick, all get together every Sunday for dinner, there's plenty of food and, of course, advice and find a nice girl and get married! It's 1984, the year of VCRs, answering machines, Trivial Pursuit and problems. Nick has to announce that after 29 years of Sunday dinners, he's received a promotion and is moving across the country to Seattle. Hilarity ensues when his loving grandparents devise a plan to keep him from moving. This is a poignant and heartwarming tale of family love and relationships that everyone can relate to."
January 22 - February 7, 2010, Three Notch Theatre is located at 21744 South Coral Drive, Lexington Park, MD. You can make reservations online at http://newtowneplayers.org/.
