JANE MALLETT THEATRE, 27 FRONT STREET EAST, TORONTO

Neil Simon’s Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play about an eccentric New York family in crisis during the summer of 1942. Old country rules clash with new world ideals as a strong-willed grandmother struggles to rule her children and grandchildren with an iron fist. This coming of age story is both humorous and touching as it follows a dysfunctional family learning to cope and evolve during incredibly stressful times.
