'Gemini' at Main Street Theatre

It's 1973, and Harvard student Francis Geminiani is turning 21 in the company of friends, family and
others. What could possibly go wrong?

The answer will come clear as Main Street Theatre Co. presents "Gemini" by Albert Innaurato, from Jan. 17-24. Showtimes are at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and at 2 p.m. Sundays. "Gemini" is produced and directed by Vince Tinebra.

Set in the back yard of a blue-collar South Philadelphia neighborhood early in the summer of 1973, this comedy-drama focuses on Geminiani's 21st birthday celebration. Guests include his divorced, blue-collar father, Fran, and Fran's widowed girlfriend, Lucille; next-door neighbor Bunny Weinberger and her overweight son Herschel; and Francis' classmates, the wealthy WASP Hastings siblings: Judith who seeks romance with Francis, and Randy, who is the object of Francis' unexpressed affection.

Tickets are available online. The theater is located at 3018 Bordentown Ave., Parlin.
