I love old movies was drawn to the title instantly. For us, actors are always bigger than our own existence and how we play out our own day to day. Mason's daughter points out how many times her father dies on camera and this leads dark and funny account from the actor about all of those existences which sort of seals him as god of various means who dies and dies and always rises for another day and film until the final death ends any more times around the sun!

This was the play of the day for me and I'm so glad to have discovered it. Love Amy's vision of what the perfect world would be with the snow and how it allows for fresh tracks that have never been seen or can be repeated. She is grieving and in that grief finds a passage through that so many would find rewarding.

The heart wants what the heart wants and when you find it and you know it's the right one, nothing's going to stand in your way of finalizing that love on your wedding day if you believe in that kind of thing and Ramona does, no matter the wait. This little gem is pure poetry.

Oh the wonderful lessons you can learn from the old school Disney animated films. Wonderful dark comedy in this monologue of a man going about his job as he talks about how proud he is of his daughter who loves her moo-maid.

It is so true that, as Americans, we don't really understand what it means to live in a country that is fighting a war, to wake up and just have bombs falling in our neighborhoods. To see that sense of freedom ripped away from us. Natalia has fled the Ukraine and now fights for just the smallest bit of dignity of just trying to do the thing she loved doing in her home country. Dance and to experience that sense of exaltation she once had but sees that to dream in America can be nightmarish in and of itself.

Seems that Henry has a type and would like to continue on the road to another marriage and wife number 4, but his ex-wives might have a thing or two to say about that before he can make it down the aisle again. All I can picture is the painting The Death of Marat as I read this funny and creepy tale.

Marriage vows state that you are basically struck through the good and bad and Donnelly points out a very realistic truth in just how many marriages turn bad due to abuse, be it emotional or physical, and how the abused becomes trapped in a cycle of lies, deception and cover-ups to explain away their true fear and horror at being trapped. Just like in real life, the scars exposed in this play remain painful even at blackout because sometimes there are no real answers to be had in these situations.

This is so very funny and a very important reminder to really read up on any ballot measures when you vote as you may be voting in something that affects you greatly. Fortunately for us, we can sit back and enjoy the horror and comeuppance that this patient is getting and really dream that one day this type of human is no longer part of the playing field.

Sickles knows how to pull a punch and can do it with one page! I was taken back to my own mom’s passing and those six months I wasn’t able to talk to her on a daily basis as I had for so long due to her failing health. She never did not accept me. This is a huge reminder to for those who think it’s all about them, to let all of that go and see the true beauty of an individual for what and who they are.

I love a Parade—I’m reminded of the haunting quote by the person who watched all the people be taken off for various reasons causes and never raised their voice to complain or protest. I love a Parade is real life horror and one that could definitely be us the more we become divided against each other and feel our way is the only way. This religious right is saving up money for just this very thing. Raise your voice! Yell, don’t whisper!
