This play is going to be wonderful! I'm told that it is professional in every way and very moving. Not for children because of adult situations, but the language is okay, and an audience of high school and college age students and adults of any age will get a lot out of it. It's in downtown Raleigh, so anyone wanting to make a day of it could take a group and go out to eat before or afterwards. These performances are a fundraiser for an organization--Kairos Outside of North Carolina--that puts on two retreats a year for women who have husbands, sons, daughters, or other family members or friends in prison. This ministry is ecumenical and interracial. I've been on four teams, including the upcoming retreat this October at Lutheridge near Asheville, in the mountains--fall colors!--and will be on the one that will be at Camp Weaver near Greensboro in April. I'll head the team that does the retreat somewhere in the eastern part of North Carolina next fall. The weekends are life-changing experiences, as women find others who understand and don't pass judgment on them. The motto is Listen, Listen, Love, Love--and what is said on a Kairos Outside weekend stays just between those of us who are there. Let me know how many tickets you want!
