Summary
This beautifully written family drama shows how four generations of Italian American women deal with crisis. The women gather in the kitchen of the DiAngelo's Brooklyn home while the dying family patriarch is in the downstairs bedroom playing Caruso records. There are five superb roles for actresses and the author has a wonderful ability to find the humor in dire situations.
