(OCEAN GROVE, NJ) -- La Strada Ensemble presents the Premiere of Not Curing Cancer at the Jersey Shore Arts Center in Ocean Grove, April 7th-9th.

 The production is directed by AJ Ciccotelli with features NYC’s 106.7 morning personality Christine Nagy (as Jane Huxley) and nationally known television travel and vacation expert Pete Trabucco (CJ Huxley).
