Costin Manu: 
Oh hello. Yes, my name is Costin Manu, I play Nunzio Cristano.
Valerie Boyle: 
My name is Valerie Boyle, and I play Emma, his wife.
Elva Mai Hoover: 
My name is Elva Mai Hoover and I’m playing Aida.
Rob McClure:
I am Rob McClure and I’m playing Frank. I’m married to the lovely Aida.
Elva Mai Hoover:
This play is about food, faith and family and Sunday dinners. Sunday in our Italian family is very important.  
Costin Manu: 
Well, I think you know it happens in every family, you know the children and the grandchildren grow up and sometimes they move away because of a job or marriage or whatever and it’s hard for the people left behind – the parents or the grandparents. 
Rob McClure: 
And for the character’s – it becomes a little bit of a crisis because we don’t want him to go away… and so we have to come up with some way to keep him nearby that’s very clever, what the plan is and what the laughs ensue.
Costin Manu & Valerie Boyle:
Right!
Elva Mai Hoover:
I think a lot of people are going to identify that feeling of- that difficulty of letting go when you love your children so much. 
Rob McClure: 
I don’t think there’s a play rehearsal where I’ve laughed as much.
Valerie Boyle: 
Oh my gosh!
Rob McClure:
As we are rehearsing it, if it’s half as funny as the fun we’re having… I have to say.
Elva Mai Hoover: 
You’re in for a good time!
Rob McClure:
You’re in for a treat for anybody who wants to have a good laugh.
