HITW Performing “Champagne & Licorice”

The Hole in the Wall Theater is opening its presentation of Scott Stephen Kegler’s play, Champagne and Licorice, this week.

The play, directed by Christina Gianelli, is described by the Theater as,

funny and touching play that finds a young woman returning home to share sobering news on New Year’s Eve. Looming heartbreak gets put on hold when she is introduced to her mother’s new boyfriend, learns the facts about her brother’s polyamorous relationships, and invites a drunken red-nosed clown to the party. Together they wheel through communication breakdowns, foiled expectations, and end-of-life choices, while staying up together long enough to watch the ball drop.

The Hole in the Wall Theater production of the play opens on Friday, May 17, 2019 and runs through June 8th.

The cast for the play includes Kate Micari-Miller in the role of “Silky”, Roy Donnelly playing “Phil”, Carl Cannella as “Edward”, Barbara Gallow as “Barbara”, Keith Nelson performing the role of “Robert”, Jennifer MacPherson playing “Cherice” and Tim Adams as “Sacha”.
