A Homecoming at Crossroads Theatre Company


By Maddie Orton, JerseyArts.com

originally published: 12/15/2022

Crossroads Theatre Company's upcoming production of Chicken & Biscuits Dec. 21-31 at New Brunswick Performing Arts Center as is about coming home. The play itself is a comedy about a family reuniting and will run over the holidays as many people head home to celebrate and hopefully catch some theater with family and friends. It is also a homecoming of sorts to returning Artistic Director Ricardo Kahn, who co-founded Crossroads Theatre Company in 1978, returned in 2020, and is working with director Lynda Gravátt, one of his early collaborators.

Jersey Arts Podcast chats with Ricardo Khan about his upcoming show, co-founding Crossroads, and what the spring season has in store.
