The Rose Tattoo

T01190097543
A young Sicilian widow living in a small Italian community in the deep south of America sustains herself on rosy memories of her deceased husband. However, on discovering that he had a mistress, her world is totally shattered, until a handsome truck driver with an uncanny resemblance to her husband comes to town. The play is a romantic comedy filled with Sicilian folklore and small town mores, which ultimately is a celebration of life.
