The run of Rounding Third has come and gone with great audiences and a lot of laughs. Check out production photos below by clicking the thumbnail. The show also received positive reviews, including one by Theater Online:
"...Chris Bucci is the energetic and traditional-minded Coach Don, who counts on his boys to win and his wife to concoct the best game-day snacks. He finds his approach challenged, however, by Greg Hill's Coach Mike, who seeks to teach the boys that the real fun lies in being a team and playing the game itself, regardless of victory or defeat...Bucci stands out as the stronger of the two actors, more physically and vocally versatile...Both actors passionately engage with the piece, clearly committed with heart and soul...The play is strong and the production worth seeing..."
