Well, I manage to stumble through a dress rehearsal of Molly Sweeney last night. Good thing too, we open Friday.

Here's the promotional blurb:

> Hey Folks,
>
> Due to a clerical error, I've been allowed to trod the
> boards and do a play again! It's called Molly
> Sweeney, by the Irish playwright Brian Friel and it
> runs Friday and Saturday this week and then
> Thursday-Sat. for the following three weekends, ending
> Saturday, July 17. See this link for specific times
> and info.

> It's in two acts, each about an hour long with about
> 15 minutes of interval between. It's probably not
> like anything you've seen before, with the three
> actors on stage together the whole play, trading
> monologues that tell the story of Molly's
> sight-restoring surgery in retrospect.
>
> And it's chock full of interesting stuff: a
> fascinating look inside the world of the blind, what
> it means to see, the difference between seeing and
> understanding, why ambition and good intentions don't
> always lead to happy endings. Not to mention flying
> fishing, Iranian goats, cheese making, African bees,
> too much whiskey, flowers, swimming, the samba, and
> two badgers, if you don't mind. Full of human
> frailty, but loaded with humor, it ends up being
> greatly affecting.
>
> Hope to see you there!
