Over the River and Through the Woods at Birmingham Village Players

This smart comedy brings the family experience lovingly to the stage as we meet Nick, a young single man in New York who takes the time to visit both sets of grandparents in their Italian-American neighborhood for dinner at least once a week. On one of those visits, he announces that his employer will be promoting him and relocating him to Seattle in a few months. His grandparents then conspire to introduce him to a nice Catholic girl as a way of enticing him to stay local. The conversations between Nick and his grandparents are as hysterical as they are poignant as the play takes us on a joyous roller coaster ride through Nicks decision making process. A heartwarming and touching comedy.
