The Last Romance at CRT

From June 19 – 28 is the CRT debut of the heartwarming comedy THE LAST ROMANCE, by Joe DePietro. CRT audiences will remember DePietro’s work from the 2005 and 2022 productions of “Over the River and Through the Woods”. This play explores the transformative power of love, no matter what age one may be. On an ordinary day in a routine life, widower Ralph takes a different path on his daily walk and meets Carol, who is sitting on a bench at a dog park. Relying on his boyish charm and a fictional dog named Rex, Ralph woos Carol, and they embark on a hilarious and touching journey that proves it’s never too late for romance. This laugh-filled comedy cleverly explores relationships between people in their golden years, and how the invisible bonds of family often tie our hearts tighter than any love affair.
