Crossing Delancey at Birmingham Village Players

Get a head start on the most romantic time of year by taking your special someone to see Crossing Delancey by Susan Sandler, a delightful and humorous love story playing January 17-February 2, 2025 at Birmingham Village Players (BVP).

This charming romantic comedy takes place primarily in New York’s Lower East Side where tradition clashes with modernity, and love blossoms in the most unexpected places. You are invited on a heartwarming journey through the streets of Manhattan as Izzy, a young woman torn between her roots and her aspirations, navigates the complexities of family, romance, and self-discovery. With humor, wit, and a touch of nostalgia, this sweet show will capture your heart and leave you smiling long after the final curtain falls.

The cast includes Kelley Rawls (Beverly Hills) as Isabelle Grossman, Joe Danz (Rochester) as Sam Posner, Sandra Deering (Clarkston) as Bubbie Kantor, Greg Ruvolo (Lathrop Village) as Tyler Moss, and Pam Martin (Birmingham) as Hannah Mandelbaum. Steve Sussman (Bloomfield Township) directed the show and created the set design. He was aided by Assistant Director Diane D’Agostino (Royal Oak), Producer Diana McClain (Rochester), and Assistant Producer Felicia Felton (Bloomfield Township).
