When we meet the Jerome family, they are crammed into a small home in Brighton Beach, a neighborhood near New York's Coney Island, with parents Jack and Kate Jerome, sons Eugene and Stanley, an aunt, Blanche, and her two daughters, Nora and Laurie. The family is facing tensions that threaten to pull it apart from without and within.
"This play is all about the importance of family and taking advantage of the resource you have in them, because it can bring you through some powerful struggles," said Kevin Hoffman, who plays Eugene.
