This beguiling family comedy by Tom Dudzick, and directed by TITG Veteran Jeanna Van Dyke, OVER THE TAVERN is just what the doctor ordered. Set in Buffalo, its story carries us back to that most idealized period of 20th Century America, the Eisenhower years of the 1950s, and introduces us to the Pazinskis: Mom, Dad and their four children, Eddie, Annie, Georgie and the hero of our tale, 12-year-old Rudy, a precocious kid who’s starting to question family values and the Roman Catholic Church.  He believes God put us on earth to “have fun,” and he’s trying to figure out why his family isn’t having any.

Performance dates are February 24, 25, March 2, 3, 9, 10 at 8:00pm, and February 26, March 4 and 11 at 2:30pm.

Tickets are $14 for adults and $12 for seniors (60 & over) and youths (17 & under). Tickets are available by calling the theatre box office at 503-359-5349. The Theatre box office will open beginning February 17, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, from Noon until 3:00pm. You can also purchase your tickets online now for this or any production this season by clicking on the link below.
