Cal, however, is now married to Will, with whom he has a young son. Challenged to face how society has changed around her, generations collide as Katharine revisits the past and begins to see the life her son, Andre, might have led.

The cast of Mothers and Sons features: Jodi Freeman Maloy of Cedar Grove as Katharine Gerard, Liam Sheffield of Wayne as Bud Ogden-Porter, Scott Baird of Rockaway as Will, and Greg Allen of Hawthorne as Cal Porter.  The production is directed by Tom Schopper.

Performances will be on September 8, 15, 16, 22, 23, and 30 at 8pm; and on September 9, 10, 17, 24, at 2pm. Tickets are $20 (senior/student tickets are $18 on matinees only).  There will be no performance on Yom Kippur, September 29, 2017.
