Quality time

Molly Sweeny The title character in this play by Brian Friel has been blind since early infancy. Her new husband wants her to have the gift of sight. This riveting play is told from the perspective of Molly, her husband, and the doctor who performs the surgery.

So I have been to the theater. Again. If Dabija and Rebengiuc sound more than familiar to Romanian theater goers, I promise you will hear more about Lelia Ciobotariu. As Molly Sweeney she gives a brilliant performance that should earn her coming awards and recognition. The Romanian text is signed by the one who has recently updated the Catcher in the rye for the new generation. Bottom line is you go and see for yourselves, if you have the chance.
