Children of a Lesser God by Mark
Medoff
February 27
& March 5, 2007 at 10:00 a.m.
This Tony Award-winning play, which details the meeting, courtship, and marriage of James Leeds, a speech therapist, and Sarah Norman, his profoundly deaf student, addresses the basic tenets of human relationships and communication. A wonderful story that increases our awareness of the world of the hearing impaired. The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde
March 27, April 1 & 3, 2007 at 10:00
a.m.
Oscar Wilde's deliciously
satiric masterpiece! Considered by many to be the funniest play in the English
language, it boasts memorable characters and sparkling wit in a romantic farce
that turns on mistaken identity, Victorian manners and the sheer brilliance of
this British playwright from the late 19th Century.

Pre-performance lecture and discussions to your
