ATF: THE LAST WIDE OPEN

JUNE 28TH - JULY 8TH

Play by Audrey Cefaly

Music by Matthew M. Nielson
With new translations by Celina Martinez
A play with music
 
What if you had one chance at love? Or beter yet, three chances? This wistful romantic comedy has a “Groundhog Day” twist. At an Italian restaraunt after closing time, two lonely co-workers seem destined to collide. Lina is a waitress who’s fed up with romance. Roberto’s an immigrant dishwasher with a talent for poetry. She plays ukulele. He plays guitar. These would-be lovers sabotage themselves in endlessly endearing ways as one night mystically plays out in three alternate fates. Will the “road not taken” lead to the same heartache? Or will love break through to a new reality?
