SYNOPSIS
The story takes place, well, at a David’s Bar Mitzvah, and centers around that group of relatives that you really don’t want to invite, but you have to anyway. Ruth, the matriarch of the bunch is the overbearing Jewish mother, butting into everyone’s business – especially her daughter Sarah. Poor Sarah is just trying to make it through the event without one more person commenting on why she’s not married yet. And father Irv rounds out the trio as he pretends he can’t hear a word of what his wife is saying. Along comes Cousin Barry and his (fake) girlfriend Gina, a beautiful Italian manicurist, which of course leaves everyone confused because they all thought that Barry was gay! And then there’s Matthew, the mystery man…who’s also, (wait for it) a doctor!
The 90-minute all-original musical (with no intermission) lets you eavesdrop as this zany bunch overeats through the cocktail hour to the all-important candle-lighting ceremony as they discover who’s having an affair with whom.
90 minutes.
