Jersey guy Joe DiPietro — who collaborated with Bon Jovi's David Bryan on "The Toxic Avenger" and the Tony-winning musical "Memphis" — scored one of his earlier successes with a family comedy that makes up in honest laughs what it might lack in hummable tunes.
Beginning tonight, Spring Lake-based South Street Players return for a new season with "Over the River and Through the Woods," a 1998 ensemble piece that places Nick, an upwardly mobile young Italian-American (Jason Piskiel), at the Sunday family dinner table with both sets of "beloved but annoying" grandparents — none of whom are happy about the prospect of his taking a great job offer in Seattle.
