FROM THE<br />
ARTISTIC/MANAGING DIRECTOR…<br />
Eleemosynary: (el ’mos’ ner e) adj.<br />
1) Of, relating to, or dependent on charity<br />
2) Contributed as an act of charity; gratuitous<br />
Dorothea, Artie and Echo, the three generations of women<br />
characters in this play, are a part of a dysfunctional family<br />
and yet each are dependent on the others.<br />
I liked the show from the first time I read it years ago,<br />
although I’m not entirely sure why. I guess I just loved<br />
the characters and their flaws. It is a well-written piece by<br />
Lee Blessing who has written several wonderful pieces for theater, “A Walk in the<br />
Woods,” “Fortinbras,” “Nice People Dancing to Good Country Music” and “War of<br />
the Roses.”<br />
Once I knew what the word meant, I thought, ACT is completely eleemosynary. We<br />
are dependent on the gifts of others: volunteer actors’ and technicians’ time and<br />
talents; as well, as financial contributions from you, our patrons.<br />
Unlike the characters in this performance, the ACT family is not so dysfunctional -<br />
although we have our days. There is a certain amount of dysfunction in all our lives.<br />
The script is also not as linear as most plays we perform and can seem disjointed as<br />
it progresses. That’s why it is important to perform without an intermission. Don’t<br />
worry, it’s a short play.<br />
I hope you enjoy. Thanks for coming.<br />
