En route to a European honeymoon, the couple’s estranged daughter Chelsea arrives to leave behind her fiancé’s troubled young son. Colliding generations soon forge common ground, but when Chelsea returns to discover Norman playing the father she never had, years of bitter memories and resentment rise to the surface. An intimate family drama laced with humor and heart, On Golden Pond explores growing up, growing old and growing closer.

This new Broadway production of Academy Award winner Ernest Thompson’s timeless family drama received a Tony Award nomination in 2005 for Best Play Revival. The tour stars Tom Bosley and Michael Learned. Leonard Foglia directs.
