Press Release

Chagrin Valley Little Theatre

Presents   Over the Tavern

February 8, 2005 :     Over the Tavern, Tom Dudzick's beguiling family =
comedy, is just what the doctor ordered. Set in Buffalo, the =
playwright's hometown, 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).

At first, as Rudy matches wits at school over his catechism lessons with =
the awesome Sister Clarissa, this looks like another variation on the =
endless nun comedies of the last few decades. Well, it is and it isn't. =
True, Sister Clarissa carries a clicker and a sturdy wooden ruler for =
discipline, but she's more than a caricature and an object of nostalgia. =
Like everyone else in this play, she may be idealized, but, she's also =
achingly human in her flaws and feelings.

Once Rudy comes home to the crowded family apartment over his father's =
tavern, it becomes clear, too, that he is not living in a "Father Knows =
Best" environment.

His dad is a physically and psychologically wounded man who leaves work =
"in a bad mood," yelling at his kids and long-suffering wife. His sister =
Annie is suffering through the confusion of sexual awakenings, his older =
brother Eddie is a rebellious teen trying to start his own life, and =
Rudy himself, an imaginative youngster with a quick wit, has the =
responsibility of looking after the mentally challenged Georgie.

Both the clich=E9s and the truths of Dudzick's script about the joys and =
travails of this family blend into a heartwarming drama filled with =
telling details. When Mom and Dad fall into each other's arms in a =
sprightly late-night polka in their living room, it's a little bit of =
heaven.
