Brian and Mark are often
visited by Brian's drunken and
sex-starved ex-wife, Beverly,
played by Joy Opaleski. This
cabin provokes a few lewd
comments, but with the comic
relief that is quite appropriate.
"The play is heavy, but not
too heavy. Don't be put off by
the fact that it deals wth
death . . . It's a fun play too,
but it will hit you where it
counts," says Joy.
In the third cabin lives
Felicity, a bawdy, raunchy old
lady in a wheelchair. Hannah
Wells portrays this cantanker
ous woman who, in Hannah's
words, "is full of piss and
vinegar." She is accompanied
by her prim, spinster daughter,
Agnes, played by Susan Chid
die.
The three cabins never inter
act with one another, but are
brought together by the Inter
viewer, a voice part presented
by Dan Pleasants.
Both director Mary Faran
Huey and technical director
Sally Reuther agree that this is
a first for Guilford. "It's not an
actors' show in which there is
one star. It is an ensemble effort
in which a true composite has
grown from the unselfish input
on the part of the cast," says
Sally.The play runs from Thurs
day, November 20 to Sunday,
November 23 and begins at
8.15.

"The young actors in this production are excellent at what they are
doing. A lot of the roles are older ones; therefore, they must play
out of their age ranges. This is probably one of the hardest things
they could do."
