PR – Evergreen Theatre: Made in Italy

Mar 12 – Mar 16.

Salvatore Mantini, an Italian immigrant from Abruzzo, invites the audience to eat with him in his traditional dining room in Jasper, Alberta. As he prepares the meal, course-bycourse, Salvatore’s story unfolds. As does the story of Francesco Mantini, his teenage son, struggling in the 1970’s to find his place in small-town Alberta.

Fed up with years ofbullying, Francesco leaves his father behind to reinvent himself as the crooner and ladies man, Frank Martin. However, even with an entirely new identity, Francesco discovers just how difficult it is to escape where he truly comes from. Filled with great songs (Italian anddisco), this is a hilarious coming-of-age story about a kid with the heart of Rocky Balboa and the moves – and hair – of John Travolta.
