THEATER | "Oy Vey, It's the Calamari Sisters"

by

The Calamari Sisters bring their shows to life through their combination of comedy and cooking. Their newest show, "Oy, Vey, It's the Calamari Sisters!" tells the story of what happens when the Italian, Roman Catholic sisters agree to cater to an event at a Jewish Funeral home and they struggle to keep Kosher. The Calamari Sisters performances started when Rochester native Jay Falzone, with co-collaborators Stephen Smith and Dan Lavender, launched "Cooking with the Calamari Sisters" at the Downstairs Cabaret Theatre. The show has gained popularity and since grown within the community.

This new show runs from Thursday, October 8, until Sunday, November 1 at the JCC CenterStage (1200 Edgewood Avenue). 2 p.m. on Sundays; 7 p.m. on Wednesdays and Thursdays; and 8 p.m. on Saturdays (additional 2 p.m. performances on October 17 and 24). Tickets can be purchased by calling 461-2000, or online at jcccenterstage.org. Ticket prices are $20 for students; $27 for JCC members; $29 for non-members; and VIP seats are also available.
