This award-winning, must-see play is set in 1950s America, in an Italian American neighborhood near the Brooklyn Bridge in New York. Eddie Carbone is attracted, nearly to the point of obsession, to Catherine, his wife Beatrice's orphaned niece, so he does not approve of her courtship by Beatrice's cousin Rodolfo. The action is narrated by Alfieri, who was raised in 1900s Italy, but now working as an American lawyer.
