I Saw This Play Last Night
Okay, actually I saw a bunch of them. Some were interesting, some were funny, some made me think -- all in all, I enjoyed what I saw last night at the Walking Fish Festival. However, I want to take the time to say well done and thank you to the people responsible for putting on my play Losing Ground. Director Todd Thomson and Assistant Director Chris Baker did very good work. Arpad Barough played David with sensitive intensity. J.C. Roy owned the role of David's husband Michael (he even shaved his head and eyebrows for the role), a terminal cancer patient. Elizabeth Kirkland was caringly supportive as Jennifer, Michael's nurse. Erin Vandenberg was perfect as the uncredited Mrs. Reissner on the phone. So, Todd, Chris, Arpad, and J.C. -- Bravo!. Elizabeth and Erin -- Brava! You guys were terrific.
Losing Ground runs for three more nights (tonight, tomorrow, and Sunday), and I encourage and invite everyone to come and watch what the Festival is calling a "serious and moving new drama."
