About Lunch
Break: Three young men in New Jersey attempt to salvage a
boutique construction company after the business’s former patriarch,
Bob DiSanti, dies suddenly of a heart attack. Tensions rise as Bob’s
eldest son Anthony and Bob’s protégé Juan fight for control of the
company, forcing his younger son Dom to choose between his biological
brother and his best friend. The play is a meditation on masculinity
and how (particularly, blue-collar) young men use degrees of touch to
process their feelings.
