Over the River and through the Woods
by Joe DiPietro
Directed by Allen Rowlen
SHOW DATES: Jan 26-Feb 5, 2023
COMEDY: Nick Cristano may be living the life of a young professional in NYC, but his loving grandparents never let him forget where he belongs: in the bosom of his tenacious, tender-hearted, loud, loving, and well-fed Italian-American grandparents. When he is offered an important promotion in Seattle, his family cooks up a matchmaking scheme to keep him in New Jersey. Over the River and Through the Woods is a warm-hearted, boisterously funny, and touching story about intergenerational relationships, deep familial love, and the inevitable little heartbreaks that occur as time passes and children grow.

In Central Louisiana, spring is traditionally marked by the blooming of azaleas and the return of warmer afternoons. But for the past twelve years, a new tradition has painted our corner of the world in far more literal hues. On Saturday, May 16, 2026, the Cenla India Association & Children’s Advocacy Network will once again transform Downtown Alexandria into a vibrant masterpiece of pinks, blues, and yellows for the 12th Annual Cenla Holi Fest.
The festivities kick off at 10 AM with a mission close to the heart of the region. The event’s signature 4K walk/jog/run isn’t just about the finish line; it’s a fundraiser for the Children’s Advocacy Network (CAN).
“United We Flourish” “# Be the Change” is the theme for 2026. Whether you are there for the cultural tapestry of traditional Indian music and dance, the intricate artistry of henna tattoos, or the bold flavors of authentic cuisine, the underlying pulse of the day is togetherness.
All proceeds benefit Children’s Advocacy Network.
