...WITH THE FLOWER IN HIS MOUTH. An evening of three one-acters by Italian Playwright Luigi Pirandello. The title play deals with death, The License with the evil eye, and The Jar with innate human idiocy. The actor who animates each is Jay Novello, a wily performer with a tasty slice of prosciutto...
