THE NICKEL JAR is a serious comedy about a man desperately trying to keep his marriage and his family together-set against the backdrop of the New Millennium and centered on a curious coin bank that's been in the family for forty years. Ben Murillo with his wife Meegan and adult children Nancy and Tom are in Sorrento on December 31, 1999. The Millennium is only a few minutes away-time enough for them to reflect on their lives and figure out who they were, who they are and where they are going. Each of the four actors also assume another role-bringing Tom's mother and father, his older sister and his younger self into the action of the play. The play moves in all directions-the characters laugh, love and cry-and shout to the heavens to be heard. In the end, as the new era hits them, they have realized everything they could have by coming to Italy for the New Year.
