Marcus Mansour, a third-generation Lebanese American, is helping his family run the annual Lebanese Festival at his Maronite Catholic church in a rapidly changing Buffalo, NY. The problem is, he's feeling disconnected from his family and community. His sister is embroiled in a toxic relationship. His dad announced that he's remarrying. And worst of all, his grandmother won't share the family's treasured recipes. When the new parish priest asks him to run the festival, Marcus seizes the opportunity to gain a deeper connection to his family and roots. Then a surprise blizzard hits.
In collaboration with Avalanche Theatre.
