Meet The Cast of
THE LAST ROMANCE
By Joe DiPietro
Directed by Bonnie B. Brewer
An Adirondack Stage Rats Production
At the Depot Theatre, Westport, NY
August 31 @ 5:00 pm
September 1 @ 8:00 pm
September 2 @ 3:00 pm
On an ordinary day in a routine life, Ralph impulsively takes a different path on his daily walk – one that leads him to an unexpected second chance at love. This laugh-filled comedy adroitly explores relationships between men and women in their golden years, as well as how the invisible ties of family often tie our hearts harder and faster than any love affair.

Jordan Hornstein (Ralph) Jordan made his acting debut as a baby chicken, at P.S. 249 in Brooklyn, in 1952, for which he received a gold star (he has received no gold stars since). The Last Romance marks his debut with Adirondack Stage Rats. He was seen on stage in Saranac Lake last summer in Pendragon Theatre’s production of Art, and will be appearing there this summer in Deathtrap. He will also be in the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts’ production of A Walk in the Woods, in July. He wishes to thank Karen and Beth for creating the Stage Rats and this opportunity. It has given him a chance to work once again with his favorite director, Bonnie, and two wonderful actors, Annie and Kathy. He lives in Long Lake with his wife, Jacqueline, and their two theatrically-inclined cats, Willie and Gracie.

Pidge (Peaches) At the age of twelve, Pidge, a Cairn-Terrier, Pomeranian mix, lives with her humans, John and Virginia Santy of Gabriel’s, NY.

Pidge has been anxiously awaiting her first role in the theatrics and wishes to thank all of her supporters, especially Aunt Sue and Uncle Dave, in this new adventure in her life.
Tiny Vyssotsky (Peaches) Tiny, age 16, hails from Queens, NY. Although originally from Greenville, SC, she considers herself a real city dog. Her hobbies include eating scrambled eggs, arguing with cats, and sleeping. Her favorite vacation spot is the Adirondaks. Which she considers “heaven on earth.”
