🌟 About the Play
Miracle on South Division Street is a heartfelt and hilarious comedy about faith, family, and the stories we tell ourselves. The Nowak family has lived in the same working-class neighborhood of Buffalo, NY for generations, proudly maintaining the family legend that the Virgin Mary once appeared in Grandpa’s barbershop. But when a family secret is revealed, their world is turned upside-down, forcing each member to confront their beliefs, their bonds, and their future. A warm, funny, and ultimately uplifting story filled with sharp humor and unexpected twists.

BEVERLY NOWAK – Female, 20s–40s
Clara’s middle daughter. Tough, blunt, and a bit skeptical, Beverly is grounded in the real world. She works as a food server and isn't afraid to speak her mind.

The oldest Nowak child. A struggling actress and aspiring writer who still lives nearby. Ruth is creative and idealistic, and she sets the story in motion when she reveals a surprising family secret.
