A Family Affair

Written by the wickedly funny Goldman brothers and John Kander, A Family Affair is a treat from the golden age of Broadway.

To the elation of their guardians, Gerry and Sally have decided to marry, and Sally's playboy Uncle Alfie declares it his responsibility to throw the young couple the perfect wedding. Tilly Siegal, Gerry's mother, declares it her responsibility to make sure that Alfie doesn't mess up. Their vastly different opinions prove to be a breaking point for all, but as they fire a heavy artillery of caterers, dressmakers, rabbis, florists and photographers, they forget the love that their children share for each other. All parties concerned soon realize: weddings may be an actual family affair, but the most important people involved are the ones saying "I do."
