Anthonys very traditional Italian mother, Angela, insists that they have a Catholic wedding with Father Rosalia presiding. Given the Vaticans position on same-sex marriages, this presents a challenge. Angela also insists that Andrews mother fly in from Florida to attend the wedding, set to take place in the fanciest Italian restaurant. But Andrews mother still refuses to talk to her gay son.The biggest challenge of all may come from Gregorio, Andrews spurned ex-lover. He threatens to scuttle the proceedings by revealing a nasty secret about Andrew.Will love conquer all? Will a large, loving Italian family come together, despite multiple obstacles, to celebrate the marriage of two men deeply in love?Anthony Wilkinson is the playwright.
