Seventy-year-old "Chick" Chicarella (Grimaldi, above left) has one prized possession, a 1967 Jaguar that is in desperate need of repair. When his son "Bone" (Daftsios, above, right) suggests that they finish the car and sell it off, old family wounds and failures rise to the surface. Unable to complete the task by themselves, they hire Carla (Bajou, above, center), who is an expert in Jaguars, but woefully lacking in social skills. Together, the three learn some hard lessons about repairing cars and smoothing out life's jagged edges. 

Award-winning playwright, Gino DiIorio has an impressive body of work that includes several plays that were premiered at NJ Rep, "Release Point," "Apostasy," "Winterizing the Summer House" and "Dead Ringer."
