THE STORY: Welcome to Southie, a Boston neighborhood where a night on the town means a few rounds of bingo, where this month's paycheck covers last months bills, and where Margie Walsh has just been let go from yet another job "David Lindsay-Abaire pays his respects to his old South Boston neighborhood with this tough and tender play about the insurmountable class divide between those who make it out of this blue-collar Irish neighborhood and those who find themselves left behind. The scrappy characters have tremendous appeal, and the moral dilemma they grapple withis it strength of character or just a few lucky breaks that determines a person's fate?holds special significance in today's harsh economic climate." Variety.
