In this bittersweet romantic comedy, a colorful collection of misfits and dreamers celebrate love, death, breakfast and other mysteries of the universe while congregating at a bohemian southern restaurant. The original screenplay was written by Zehr, based on his experiences working in food service in the eighties and nineties.

The One More Last Chance Diner features a large cast of local theater veterans and newcomers, including Summer McGaffigan, Steve Winegard, Nevin Zehr, Dennis Lee, Will Browning, Eleanor Held, Joey Nunez, Kate Hoffmeyer and Daniel Mintz.

Jay Zehr has been acting, writing and directing plays since 1985. His last original show for Valley Playhouse was If There’s A Rock And Roll Heaven in 2015 and he has also directed The End Of The World As We Know It, Last Night of Ballyhoo, Dearly Departed, Our Town and Kiss the Moon, Kiss the Sun at Court Square Theater.
