Set in a working class neighborhood in Buffalo, New York, “Miracle on South Division Street” is about the Nowaks, a Polish Catholic family consisting of matriarch Clara, son Jimmy, and daughters Ruth and Beverly.
They always thought they were special, ever since Clara’s father, an immigrant from war-torn Poland, had a miraculous vision in his barbershop in 1942. But 65 years later, Clara’s youngest has stopped going to church, her son is dating a Jewish girl, and a deathbed confession causes a family legend to unravel with unexpected results.
The cast includes Alison Cimmet as Beverly (Westport Country Playhouse’s “Romeo and Juliet,” “She Loves Me”; Broadway’s “She Loves Me,” “The Mystery of Edwin Drood,” “Bonnie and Clyde”); Pamela Dunlap as Clara (Westport Country Playhouse’s “Love and Money,” “Absence of a Cello”; veteran of 40-plus years in theater, film, and TV, with recurring roles on “Mad Men,” “Three’s Company”); Patrick Halley as Jimmy (New York’s “The Misanthrope,” “25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee”; regional theater’s “Of Mice and Men,” “Peter and the Starcatcher”); and Amelia Pedlow as Ruth (Off-Broadway’s Intelligence, “The Metromaniacs,” “Tis Pity She’s a Whore,” “Pride and Prejudice”; TV’s “The Good Wife,” “Blue Bloods,” “Shades of Blue,” “The Blacklist”).
Stage directions will be read by Alexandra Rapapport. Stage manager is Page Tazewell.
