Playing this week at the Prescott Center for the Arts’ Small stage, Stage Too, is “Italian American Reconciliation: A Folktale.” Playwright John Patrick Shanley is best known for his Oscar winning Screenplay “Moonstruck.” The PCA production features five seasoned actors in roles they seem to inhabit gracefully. 

The narrator is Aldo, played by Rex James. He thinks of himself as the sophisticated man of the world, but as the action unfolds, we come to see that his glib wit hides a somewhat different reality. Aldo’s best friend, from childhood on, is Huey, Amos Owen’[s character. Huey is still emotionally entangled with his ex-wife, Janice (Angela Bryan.) Cheryl Rowland plays Huey’s current girlfriend, Angela and Trudy Forbes is her Aunt May.
