Archives - Over the River and Through the Woods

by Joe DiPietro

Directed by Beth Maxwell

Friday 14th – Saturday 22nd October 2005 in the Auditorium

Can Italian-American Nick leave his beloved but demanding grandparents — and will they let him? For this is Hoboken, New Jersey, and Nick’s attempts to live as an American individual and yet stay loyal to his traditional Italian family generate the tensions and misunderstandings which drive this touching and very funny play.

The Barn is honoured to be presenting the UK Premiere of a delightful comedy.

A hilarious family comedy
