Paul Osborn’s heart-warming Tony award-winning comedy focuses the four Gibbs sisters who share in each other’s lives, sometimes perhaps too much. The family is anxiously awaiting the arrival of Ida and Carl’s son, Homer, and his fiancee, Myrtle. Homer and Myrtle have been engaged for seven years and it’s difficult to believe, but this will be the first time anyone in the family has met her!
Hailed as “one of the best American comedies,” this perennially charming portrait of small town America fifty+ years ago was revived on Broadway in 1980 and in 2002 to critical acclaim!
