MOON OVER BUFFALO

at
The Manahan Center  700 1st Street  La Salle, Illinois

Moon Over Buffalo is a hilarious "backstage farce" for a mature audience. George and Charlotte Hay are an acting couple who enjoyed initial success on Broadway, but who have fallen, over the years, on hard times. Now, middle-aged and doing repertory theater in Buffalo, New York in 1953, their final shot at true stardom hinges on an expected visit from movie director Frank Capra. What they don’t expect are complications involving their former-actress daughter, the passionate company manager, the company’s attractive ingénue, a lovesick attorney, a starstruck TV weatherman and Charlotte’s hard-of-hearing mother. Mayhem and all-out hilarity ensue!
