Here is the publicity blurb for the show:

Somebody once said, “Grandchildren are God’s reward to you for not killing your own kids.” Charley Dube, the main character of Blessed Event, would agree wholeheartedly with that statement. Charlie is the eighty-year-old patriarch of a lovable, dysfunctional, French-Canadian family residing in West Hartford, CT. Come and visit with this off-beat family as they spend Charlie’s last day on this earth grappling with life’s issues and reminiscing about the sometimes comical, sometimes touching events that make up a life well-spent. You will walk out of the theater with your heart filled with love, laughter and tears, and you will recognize yourself, your friends and your own family members in the wonderfully human characters. They will live on in your hearts and minds long after the final curtain falls. The show is written and directed by Coventry resident, Jim Hetrick.
