After a recent extension, Steve Solomon's hit one-man comedy My Mother's Italian, My Father's Jewish and I'm in Therapy is at the Little Shubert Theater indefinitely, according to Variety.

Originally slated to run through January 28th and then extended through April 1st, the show will now play an open-ended run Off-Broadway.  The show began previews on November 3rd and opened on December 8th.

In addition, Solomon will tour with Italian+Jewish=Therapy in the fall.  A replacement performer will be announced to succeed him at the Little Shubert. 

Rodger Hess, Abby Koffler, Howard Rapp, Arnold Graham and Ed Frankel present the production.  "One part lasagna, one part kreplach and two parts prozac, Italian+Jewish=Therapy is written by and stars Solomon and directed by John Bowab (Legends!, The Unsinkable Molly Brown).

"Having headlined throughout the United States and Europe for over twenty years, Steve's stories relate to the wacky side of the human condition, combining comic voices, sound effects and astounding characters  - bringing alive a myriad of people from all walks of life." The show has toured in over 50 cities around the United States, Canada and Bermuda, playing to sold-out audiences and return engagements.

Performances are Wednesday – Saturday at 8:00PM and Sunday at 7:30PM with matinees Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday at 3:00PM. Tickets are $35-$65 (+ $1.25 facility charge).  For tickets call www.Telecharge.com, (212) 239-6200.  Visit www.ItalianJewishTherapy.com for more information.
