Synopsis:
“A Nice Family Gathering” is a story about a man who loved his wife so much, he almost told her.
It’s Thanksgiving Day and the first family gathering at the Lundeen household since Dad died. At the gathering, Dad comes back as a ghost with a mission; to tell his wife of 35 years that he loved her, something he neglected to tell her while he was alive. The problem is, she can’t hear or see him. The trouble begins when Mom invites a date for dinner.
If you’re not interested in a role on stage, come on out anyway, as we need help backstage too!
