Next up, Players Circle presents Tom Dudzick\u2019s OVER THE TAVERN, running\u00a0February 10th – Mar 8th.<\/p>\n
In that most idealized period of 20th-century America, the Eisenhower years of the 1950s, the Pazinski family has a lot going on in their cramped Buffalo apartment. The youngest of the bunch, 12-year-old Rudy, is a smart, wise-cracking kid who’s starting to question family values and the Roman Catholic Church. When Rudy goes up against the ruler-wielding Sister Clarissa (played by Carrie Lund-Cacioppo) and announces that instead of being confirmed he’d rather shop around for a more \u201cfun\u201d religion, all hell breaks loose.<\/p>\n
This hilarious look at family, growing up, and God was praised as \u201cAbsolutely enchanting… a little bit of heaven\u201d by The Chicago Tribune.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is the perfect play to follow our production of LITTLE WOMEN \u2013 THE MUSICAL, a heartwarming and touching comedy that reminds us what being a family is all about,\u201d states Artistic Director, Robert Cacioppo.<\/p>\n
Players Circle was lauded by Gulf Coast News and BroadwayWorld for their recent production of Dudzick\u2019s GREETINGS, landing sold-out performances and unanimous positive feedback.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a highly relatable comedy that we can all enjoy together. Fort Myers audiences love Dudzick\u2019s plays because he writes with razor-sharp wit about the most universal topic, family,\u201d continued Cacioppo.<\/p>\n
