$48
​(includes tax and processing fees and will be reflected at checkout)

​Nick has a great job, a bright future, and a standing Sunday dinner invitation from not one but two sets of Italian grandparents who love him a little too much. When a big promotion threatens to take him three thousand miles away, his grandparents pull out every trick in the book — matchmaking, guilt, and a story or two he never asked for — to keep their boy close to home.

​A heartfelt, hilarious comedy about family, food, and the ties that bind (whether you like it or not),
Over the River and Through the Woods asks: how far would you go for the people who raised you — and how far is too far for them to go to keep you?

​Strong Box Theatre presents an evening with local author Daniel R. LaRussa, an East Rockaway alumnus, as he discusses and signs his breakout dramatic novel, Pale Blue.
​Join us as this rising author shares the themes and journey behind the book. At the conclusion of the event, each guest will receive a signed copy and a chance to speak with the author.

ABOUT THE BOOK: On the anniversary of a family tragedy, a disillusioned millennial seeks the counsel of his former therapist from years ago. During treatment he recounts the events of his life, and encounters a stranger that challenges his belief systems. His path is put to the test when confronting traumas from the past haunting the future.

DANIEL LARUSSA born (September 14, 1985) in New Hyde Park, New York, is an author, and native of Long Island, New York. He split his time growing up between East Rockaway, and Oyster Bay. Daniel is the creator of the short lived 'Life After Pride' comedy series (2011-2013) and the supernatural 'SAGE' series, a sci-fi fantasy saga. His first dramatic novel 'Pale Blue' was released on May 2nd 2025.
