HARRISBURG – “Greetings,” a holiday-themed comedy written by Tom Dudzick and directed by HACC Theatre Professor Marnie Brennan, will be presented by HACC TheatreWorks at the Rose Lehrman Arts Center on the Harrisburg Campus of HACC. This funny and heart-warming tale culminates into an evening with laughter and perhaps some tears. Evening performances will take place on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 16 and 17, 2012, at 8 p.m. and a matinee on Sunday, Nov. 18, 2012, at 2 p.m.
This five-character comedy tells the tale of a young man who brings home his Jewish atheist fiancé to meet his very Catholic parents on Christmas Eve. With the inevitable family explosion comes an out-of-left-field miracle that propels the family into a wild exploration of love, religion, personal truth and the nature of earthly reality. It’s not a typical greeting card Christmas.
