BIDDEFORD — “Over the River and Through the Woods,” a family comedy by Joe Dipietro, will be presented by City Theater Oct. 14- 23. The play is about Nick, a single, Italian-American guy from New Jersey who has dinner with both sets of his grandparents every Sunday.

The grandparents include Frank, an Italian immigrant who’s been running into things with his car lately; Aida, a typical grandmother to whom everyone always looks hungry; and Nunzio and Emma, “the loudest people I’ve ever met,” according to Nick. Nick tells them all he has been offered his dream job in Seattle. Thus begins a series of schemes to keep Nick around, including bringing to dinner the lovely – and single – Caitlin O’Hare as bait.
