This comedy, written by Allen Swift and directed by Len Robinson, centers on 90 year-old Morris Applebaum, a retired Yiddish stage actor with a long and colorful career. Since his wife’s death, life has felt diminished; so Morris has decided to “check out” by throwing a big party and then committing suicide. When news of his plan gets out, his 3 grown children race to New York where they frantically try to dissuade Morris from implementing his plan. Show dates: June 14, 16, 17, 21, 23, 24, 2012
