Making God Laugh at City Lights Theater Company

Produced in association with First FolioTheatre, the play is inspired by the Woody Allen joke, “If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.” The play centers on a couple of empty nesters welcoming home their three children over various holidays spanning three decades. As the parents and grown children deal with each of their evolving lives, we get a glimpse inside their dreams, unresolved issues, old family traditions, and of course, dubious holiday recipes. Tensions flare up and laughs break out as audiences join the family fun during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s visits.
