A Catered Affair

The NFCT’s 2023-2024 season begins with the musical A Catered Affair with a book by Harvey Fierstein and music and lyrics by John Bucchino. Bob Kaplan directs.

The musical is based on Gore Vidal’s 1956 film and the 1955 teleplay by Paddy Chayefsky. The action is set in the Bronx. Jane and Ralph decide to marry in a simple City Hall ceremony. But Jane’s mother, bereaved after her son’s death in the Korean War, envisions a lavish affair and strains family relationships and finances to plan the wedding she has always wanted.
