Description: Join us for the World Premier performances of Liv After Death, an original two-act play by local playwright Laura Byron Wade. Originally a competition piece for the Florida Theatre Conference, this heartfelt comedy has been expanded into a full-length production. Set in upstate New York, the play introduces us to the vibrant and outspoken Esposito family. Despite facing life’s challenges—including divorce, loss, and the complexities of mother-daughter relationships—this loud and lovable Italian family finds humor and resilience in even the toughest moments. At the heart of the story is the sudden and untimely passing of the family’s patriarch, Nicky Esposito. As the surviving family members navigate their grief, they discover new ways to cope with their loss and rebuild their lives, all while sharing laughter, love, and unforgettable memories. Don’t miss this touching and hilarious exploration of family bonds, resilience, and the power of laughter in the face of adversity.
