The Old Settler

Lucie Stern Theater, San Francisco

About the Show

Romance kindles amidst the tenements of wartime Harlem in this warmhearted dramatic comedy, a tale of two delightful but ever-bickering sisters in their middle years, one the never-married “old settler” of neighborhood slang. Generously spiced with laughter, The Old Settler is the bittersweet saga of a lonely heart who falls desperately for a younger man, tasting the delight and dispair of mismatched love.
