You & Me Productions presents for it’s 3rd Holiday season a holiday gift wrapped in love and laughter: Buon Natale! Christmas Eve Italian Style, a two-act comedy written & directed by Rita Andriello.
Luigi Smaldino of L’Italo Americano Newspaper said: BUON NATALE! “…A Must See!”
“If you have a big ethnic dysfunctional family — think MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING — you will love this show…this is a feel good play for everyone to enjoy.”
Don Grigware, www.reviewplays.com
“With a nod to Nia Vardalos, writer-director Rita Andriello’s formulaic feel-good confection aspires to be a big fat Italian family comedy.”
