The first festival lasted for 11 days and included a Parade and Pancake Supper which are still celebrated today.

Prepare for an evening full of hilarity, good food, and heartwarming family moments during the Dublin Main Street Players’ production of Over the River and Through the Woods on October 9th, 10th, and 11th!
Scene
Over the River and Through the Woods, written by Joe DiPietro, is the classic story of deciding to leave home for the first time and the consequences, good and bad, of what follow.
Nick is a single, Italian-American guy from New Jersey. His parents retired and moved to Florida. That doesn’t mean his family isn’t still in Jersey. In fact, he sees both sets of his grandparents every Sunday for dinner. This is routine until he has to tell them that he’s been offered a dream job. The job he’s been waiting for—marketing executive—would take him away from his beloved, but annoying, grandparents. He tells them. The news doesn’t sit so well. Thus begins a series of schemes to keep Nick around. How could he betray his family’s love to move to Seattle, for a job, wonder his grandparents? Well, Frank, Aida, Nunzio and Emma do their level best, and that includes bringing to dinner the lovely—and single—Caitlin O’Hare as bait…we won’t give the ending away here.
Cast of Characters
Nick Cristano – A guy in his late 2os looking for a fresh start.
Frank Gianelli – Nick’s maternal grandfather, an 80 year old immigrant from Italy.
Aida Gianelli – Nick’s maternal grandmother, a woman in her 70s whose love language is caring for others, especially through food.
Nunzio Cristano – Nick’s paternal grandfather, in his 70s, quite the charmer.
Emma Cristano – Nick’s paternal grandmother, a sweet schemer in her 70s that just wants the best for her grandson.
Caitlin O’Hare – A charming woman in her later 20s.
