Stories from the Stage

Unexpected Gift

Special events don’t always turn out the way we’ve planned. But with a little creativity, a dash of humor, and a whole lot of hope, those wrong turns can become unexpected gifts. A surprising gift from her dad changes Mary D'Alba's first big high school dance; Carmine Sarno learns that fatherhood is a nerve-wracking yet also heart-warming undertaking; and Hadi Shavarini brings his Persian touch to an otherwise traditional celebration. Three storytellers, three interpretations of UNEXPECTED GIFT, hosted by Theresa Okokon.
