Frank Ingrasciotta presents BLOOD TYPE: RAGU
Writer/Performer Frank Ingrasciotta will perform his critically-acclaimed one-man play Blood Type: RAGU at the John W. Engeman Theater in Northport, Long Island (NY) on Tuesday, October 3, 2017 at 8 pm. Blood Type: RAGU is a wonderfully funny and genuinely moving one-man play exploring a first-generation immigrant child's delicate dance between culture, identity, and forgiveness.
Ingrasciotta gives a tour-de-force portrayal of over 20 characters who live, love and laugh, in this fast-paced journey that is not just a comedy, not just a drama - It's family -- and we all have one! The show delighted audiences Off-Broadway at the Actors' Playhouse in NYC receiving a glowing New York Times review.
It has continued to tour at the Sheas Performing Arts Center (Buffalo, NY) where it was produced by Tony Award Winner and Broadway League Vice Chair Albert Nocciolino, also at the Capital Repertory Theatre (Albany, NY), 14th Street Playhouse (Atlanta, GA), Dante Hall Theatre (Atlantic City, NJ), George Street Playhouse (New Brunswick, NJ), Seven Angels Theatre (Waterbury, CT), Winnipeg Theatre Festival (Canada), and numerous Performing Arts Centers.
Blood Type: RAGU is the recipient of the Westchester Council Arts Award for Outstanding Artist, a Sons of Italy Recognition Award, and the winner of two United Solo Awards for Best Comic Actor and Best Comedic Script (nominated alongside Fiona Shaw, Bette Midler, Hugh Jackman & John Leguizamo). It also performed for Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the NY State Legislators where it received honors on the house floor of the New York State Capital. Blood Type: RAGU is also chronicled and analyzed in Prof. Fred Gardaphe's book, From Wiseguys to Wisemen: The Gangster and Italian-American Masculinities.
