Back from THE POT-LUCK PLAYS and a post-show snack with Rodzinski and TPunk. I'll discuss specifics about Rodzinski's play after the run is over because the surprises (gentle yet extremely effective dramatically and emotionally) are important to the impact of the piece, but I will say try to get there this weekend or next and enjoy the spectacular work of HHW's own Tom Nondorf, and the splended and so very real acting of Mr. Steve Maruzzelli and HHW's own Antonia Barba. (Apparently, tomorrow's perfs are particularly good in terms of assuring the best seating choices.)
Skip was a little tired after a long walk with the dogs this morning, so we almost shifted our tix to the evening performance, but I'm glad we went in the afternoon because that afforded us the opportunity to spend some time with author/director and the female star of that playlet, called "Answering." It was exciting to talk with them right after having seen the show.
We got a lovely bonus going this afternoon in that the de facto house manager at this performance was one of Skip's former students, who also had a fine fine playlet on the program, the Kleban Award-winning writer Cheryl Davis. It was lovely getting to see her and chat with her as well.
