I'm just finishing up a two-week holiday on Canada's east coast. Many lobsters suffered a terrible fate and the weather was wonderful. And at the end of it, of course, the electronic inbox has swelled with all sorts of interesting things including a note from Liesl, an old friend who was (and still is I'll bet) a great director back in the days when I thought I'd be an actor. She has a reading in Toronto next week of her new play. You should go. If you can, she'd love a heads-up via e-mail. Here's a slightly edited version of a note she's sending around:
Heads up on a twenty minute private reading of my new play… We are shooting for a 9:00pm on Wednesday 30 July. If you want to come for diner at 7:00pm I would love an RSVP.

By Liesl Lafferty
