Over the River and Through the Woods at Elgin Theatre Company

Meet Nick - a single guy from New Jersey with four adoring, and adorable, grandparents. Nick's grandparents believe in the 3 F's: Family, faith and food. Every Sunday Frank, Aida, Nunzio and Emma fold Nick into their warmth for a traditional dinner with "la famiglia", and try to impart to him the importance of family, a good meal and a good wife. When he tells them of his plans to move across the country for the job of his dreams, the news doesn't sit so well. They go into full crisis mode and pull out every scheme in the book to get him to stay close to home - including baiting him with pretty Caitlin O'Hara, the girl next door. This warm, witty, beautiful story is one to share with your family this holiday season.
