Crossing Delancey is a charming, insightful romantic comedy set amid the pickle shops and park benches of Manhattan’s Lower East Side. Isabelle Grossman has everything— good looks, confidence, a great apartment, and a job promoting handsome book authors—but in this city of 7 million, real love is hard to find.

With the help of her wisecracking Yiddish grandmother “Bubbie” and a persistent neighborhood matchmaker, Izzy learns to tell the difference between what she thinks she wants, and what she really wants.

A wonderful comedy about an aspiring playwright who gets involved with some shady characters in order to finance his new play.

An intimate show that captures the flavor of small time mobsters, Italian restaurants and theater. It’s the gangster biz meets show biz.

You’ll leave full of laughter and hungry for Italian food.

“What goes around, comes around,” so the saying goes. “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” is a whirlwind of twists and turns set in motion by two rival con men competing to swindle the same woman. Set among the breezy beaches and glitzy fashions of the French Riviera, this musical comedy pays tribute to the shows of the 1920s and 30s with catchy tunes in the style of Cole Porter and free-wheeling comedy that takes flim-flam to its highest level....
