DUE TO A FAMILY ISSUE THE APRIL 22 INTERPRETATION FOR THE DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING HAS BEEN CANCELED
Sponsored By:
Isabel is a modern young woman who lives alone and works in a book shop. When she is not pining after a handsome author, she is visiting her grandmother in Manhattan's Lower East Side. This delightfully nosey old lady and her friend the matchmaker have found a "catch" for Isabel - Sam, the handsome pickle vendor.
Isabel is resistant to changing her idea's of where her life is heading and does not want to go back to the "Old" way of life with a traditional Jewish lifestyle.
With humor, resilience, and a touch of misunderstanding, Isabel learns to adjust her narrow view. The end of the play is really a beginning, ripe with possibilities for Isabel and Sam.
