Loyalty\, patriotism\, truth\, parenting\, grief\, deceit\, and the resilience of the human spirit. This is an extraordinary love story.\nWritten & Performed by Jeannie Zusy & Directed by Lee Brock \nPresented by Hit House Creative\n \nJeannie Zusy created Turkish Delight as an artist in residency at The Barrow Group\, NYC\, working with Artistic Director/ director Lee Brock. Her novel The Frederick Sisters Are Living the Dream\, published by Simon & Schuster/Atria Books\, was called a “powerful debut” by Publishers Weekly\, and chosen as a Best Book of the Year by Real Simple.

Since formally launching in 2022 the company has offered a consistent range of theatrical and film programming at local venues such as The Beacon\, The Howland Cultural Center\, The Yard\, and Safe Harbors of the Hudson. With the aim to provide space for playwrights to hear their work in a performative way – key for dramatists- Hit House formally launched their performed play reading series in November of 2024. Hit House served as co-producer with Safe Harbors of the Hudson to bring the first-ever Newburgh Fringe Festival in October of 2025.\n\nAfter you arrive at 141 Main St\, venture below the sidewalk to “Savage Wonderground” and prepare to be greeted by our delightfully caffeinated crew as we usher you into our theatrical nest.\n*There is no seating chart. There are only 25 seats. Every seat is a great seat!
