Louis Larusso II
After twenty years, singer Fred Santora brings his right hand man to his old barroom hangout in Hoboken following his one man show at Madison Square Garden.
Friends from the past Biggie, the bartender; Mac, the local Irish cynic; and Tommy, the happy bookie drink with him into the night.
Liquor and memories combine to expose the tragic and humorous truths of their lives.
"A humdinger of a melodrama."
— The New York Times
"Tense, well written and has guts and earthy dialogue."
— NBC
| Character |
|---|
| Mac A medium built Irishman with a pot belly from too much drink. Bright, witty frony with a deep, dark sadness. |
| Tommy A short, stocky Sicilian who looks like he could break you in half. A light hearted man looking for pleasure. |
| Jobby Medium built Jewish guy. Easy going by nature, but capable of being very dangerous if provoked. |
| Fred A typical aging Italian male. Not tall, not thin, and not happy. Worldlier than the others, a real take charge guy. |
| Biggie A very tall, strongly built man with Northern Italian coloring. Loud and threatening, but soft as a kitten. |
