Cheesesteak Latkes - An Original One Act

Christine stars in Cheesesteak Latkes, opening this weekend at the Moth Theatre...

Cheesesteak Latkes is a one act by Philadelphia-area playwright Matt Ocks. The first of his three "Cheesesteak Plays," it starts the story of the Brooklyn-born, Jewish rocket scientist, Henry Zimmerman and his reason for being, the cute Italian Catholic from South Philly, manager of Marv's Triangle Diner, Jo Ellen Di'Palermo. The first obstacle to their love is Henry's mother, Masha, whose sudden appearance at Marv's is anything but welcome. Starring Matthew Hannon as Henry, Christine Weatherup as Jo Ellen, and Francee Efron Shapiro as the meddling Masha, this zany one act will be an hour of insanity you won't soon forget.
