ABOUT THE SHOW
Nick is a single, Italian American guy living in New Jersey. He’s devoted to his family; in fact, he still sees his grandparents every week for dinner…But Nick’s lofty ambitions soon see him land a job on the other side of the country and upon his revelation, his grandparents begin a series of hysterical schemes to try and keep him in the neighborhood. An Off-Broadway sensation, Over the River is a hilarious comedy about the shift in priorities over the generations, with family and home at its core.
