BIG NIGHT is the story of two brothers, Primo and Secondo, who have emigrated from Italy to open an Italian restaurant in America. Primo is the irascible and gifted chef; Secondo is the smooth front-man, trying to keep the restaurant financially afloat. They plan a special benefit night to increase business. Primo begins to prepare his masterpiece, a feast of a lifetime, for the brothers' Big Night.
Favaloro’s BIG NIGHT Bistro in Pacific Grove specializes in fresh Italian fare with an emphasis on seafood. This family-owned restaurant has been a Pacific Grove favorite for nearly a decade. Quiet and cozy, it is the perfect setting for a romantic dinner, yet remains a rare fine food restaurant where families are warmly welcomed. Proprietor Marie Favaloro is a gracious hostess and an excellent chef.
The Guild’s All-Star Outreach program is a proven model for pro-active outreach in the live performing arts to youth throughout Monterey County.
The special film series is made possible by support from the Golden State Theatre and the City of Monterey.
