    The Transformative Play 'Affairs of the Family' by Carl Stillitano, is about three siblings who were struck by tragedy at a young age. For Vic, the patriarch of the Colangelo household, time has stood still since. Danny and Victoria are determined to follow their hearts and break free from their past. This play is about the complicated dynamics within families and finding inner strength after death.

    Struggling with abandonment, alcohol, anxiety, and other challenges? Step into the Colangelo household, where the year might be 2019 elsewhere, but it's stuck in 1985 according to 38-year-old Vic Colangelo.  

     

    For seventeen years, Vic has shouldered the responsibility of his younger siblings, Victoria and Danny. But now, as they seek independence, tensions flare over Danny's career path, driving a wedge between Vic and Victoria.  Vic's well-intentioned but suffocating control clashes with Victoria's fierce independence, while Danny, with the soul of an artist trapped in the role of a future accountant, finds himself caught in the middle.  

     

    As the conflict escalates, Danny attempts to play peacemaker, navigating the minefield of familial discord. But buried truths inevitably rise to the surface, forcing the family to confront their issues and embrace change.
