One part lasagna, one part kreplach, and two parts Prozac, you don't have to be Jewish or Italian to appreciate Steve Solomon’s “My Mother’s Italian, My Father’s Jewish & I’m In Therapy!”
Grab your mom (or mom friends!) and celebrate Mother’s Day with a night on the town on Sunday, May 8, 2022 at 7:30pm at The Ridgefield Playhouse! Author and comedian Steve Solomon's award-winning show has received rave reviews from all over the country and has become one of the longest-running one-man shows in Broadway history!
This hilarious comedy, part of the Barts Tree Service Comedy Series and Teed & Brown Broadway & Cabaret Series, is based on his life growing up in a wacky family noted for its bi-ethnic diversity. Solomon's mother is from Palermo, and his father is from Russia. He grew up as one of two siblings in Brooklyn. His extended family had an aptitude for dysfunctional behavior and their sole purpose seemed to be to drive him into therapy... and they succeeded!
Before the show every mom will receive a complimentary glass of Freixenet Sparkling Wine! Treat your mom to dinner before the show – visit Southwest Café (109 Danbury Road, Ridgefield) and enjoy a complimentary margarita with your entrée when you show your ticket. Media sponsor for this night of comedy is WICC Radio 600am/107.3fm.
Steve’s show will make you feel like you are sitting in another family’s (quite dysfunctional) living room. Brace yourself for laughter and tears as he introduces you to a myriad of characters using his hysterical impersonations including his Italian/Jewish family, Steve’s ex, their therapists, the kids, the grandkids and much more. “A Funny Look at Family Relationships. An Entire Family Wrapped into a One-Man Show.” says WCBS TV. Theatergoers are being encouraged to ACT SOON as Steve’s shows have continued to sell out across the world after 10,000 performances and one million tickets sold. Patrons should be prepared to laugh, cry, be delighted and maybe feel a little bit better about their own family!
