Radburn Players to Present Acclaimed Comedy "Daddy's Dyin' Who's Got the Will"

New Jersey's oldest community theater opens an acclaimed comedy this Friday in Fair Lawn.

The Radburn Players will present Del Shores’ acclaimed comedy Daddy’s Dyin’ – Who’s Got the Will?, on May 1, 2, 7, 8 and 9 at 8 pm, and Sunday May 3 at 2pm, at the Radburn Association Grange Hall, 29-20 Fair Lawn Avenue in Fair Lawn. Tickets can be purchased before each performance at $15 for adults ($10 for members) and $12 for students and seniors.

Daddy’s Dyin’ – Who’s Got the Will? may leave you rolling in the aisles with laughter. As their patriarch’s health declines, a dysfunctional Southern family scrambles to predict how his estate will be split up. His greedy grown children have all come home to pay their respects, but they can’t wait to get their hands on the all-important will – which their father announces he’s misplaced!

The Los Angeles Times called Daddy’s Dyin’ “A well written piece of mainstream theatre that’s consistently funny and occasionally touching.” Variety dubbed it “A masterful comedy!”
