rock ‘n’ roll queen returns for her crown in “I Will Not Go Gently,” a world premiere comedy written and performed by Jennifer Childs. This play with music tells the story of fictional ’80s rock icon Sierra Mist and the spirit of rebellion embodied in her music. Sierra has gone from top of the charts to middle aged obscurity, leaving behind a legion of fans for whom her songs were “Finding myself at the the anthems of their adolescence. doorstep of middle age “I Will Not Go Gently” opens at a rehearsal for Sierra’s comereally surprised me.” back tour. It’s been 30 years since she topped the charts with her sexually charged debut track Jack in My Box and Sierra – Jennifer Childs wants to get back in the spotlight. We soon meet Abby, Sierra’s number one fan, who spent her youth idolizing the free-spirited rock star but who is now a mother living in suburbia, hosting a nightly podcast, and trying to find the right yoga class. We meet Abby’s daughter Tabitha, a tech-obsessed teen, self-confident, and self-assured that she’ll never turn out like her mother. When Abby hears
arberth’s First Friday in May is always special because the Borough and the business community celebrate the launch of NarbART month. For the month of May, shops and restaurants in downtown Narberth display original artwork, with a common theme, in their windows. This year, Narberth’s First Friday, on May 6, from 5 p.m. 9 p.m., will also mark the local launch of the Inside Out Project from the Philadelphia Museum of Art. This installation brings reproduction of eleven pieces of art, from inside the museum, outside to the streets of Narberth. The Borough is thrilled to be chosen to host one of these outdoor galleries, and will be introducing the installation to the public as part of the First Friday celebration. The event will include live music, open houses, art projects for kids and adults, local art exhibitions, an art “scavenger hunt,” and food and drink specials. From April 6 through July, residents of Old City and Tacony in Philadelphia, and Coatesville, Doylestown, Lansdowne, and Narberth will discover outdoor art installations of Museum masterpieces popping up in their communities. This is the second year the Museum has participated in the program, having brought Inside Out to towns across Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia Counties last year.

The April 26 PA Primary Election: Too Much at Stake to Stay Home he Pennsylvania Primary Election is Tuesday, April 26, and the stakes could not be much higher. Registered Democrats and Republicans will be choosing their party’s candidates for the General Election. In addition to the races for President and U.S. Senate, all of the seats in the U.S. House of Representatives are up for election this year. Pennsylvanians will also be choosing a new State Attorney General and a new State Treasurer. The State Auditor General position, half of the seats in the State Senate, and all of the seats in the State House will be on the ballot as well. Many of these races are being contested within both parties, giving voters another reason to go to the polls on April 26. The PA Primary is a closed primary, which means that only voters registered for a particular party may vote in that party’s primary. The polls will be open 7 a.m. - 8 p.m. The website for the Montgomery County Voter Services Office, http://www.montcopa.org/1386/2016-Election-Information, is an excellent source of information about the 2016 Primary Election, including a tool to find your polling place and a list of all of the candidates who will appear on the ballot and their ballot position. One item that was to appear on the Primary Election ballot, a PA Constitutional amendment to change the mandatory judicial retirement age, has been moved to the General Election this fall. Voters will also be electing delegates to their party’s national conventions. The selection of delegates is arguably the least understood aspect of a primary election in a presidential cycle. Each major party approaches it differently, and it varies from state to state. In Pennsylvania, the presidential primary for both parties consists of two parts: a presidential preference contest and the direct election of convention delegates. After this, the similarities end. On the Democratic side, Pennsylvania has been allocated 210 delegates and 16 alternates for the Democratic National Convention (DNC). Of the 210 delegates, 189 will be pledged to a specific candidate; the remaining 21 delegates are the socalled “superdelegates,” who are not pledged or bound to a specific candidate. All 16 alternates will be pledged. In the April 26 primary, Democrats will elect 127 pledged delegates and 12 alternates at the Congressional District level. The number of pledged, district-level delegates each candidate is awarded in a particular district is based on how the candidates perform in the district. One other point to mention here. Democratic Party rules require that the pledged delegates be divided equally between men and women. So half of the district-level delegates and district-level alternates elected on April 26 will be male, half will be female. Lower Merion and Narberth are part of the 2nd Congressional District. The 2nd District will elect 14 delegates, seven men and seven women, and one alternate (male). Democrats in the 2nd Congressional District may vote for as many as 14 delegate candidates plus one alternate. On the ballot, the delegates will not be grouped by Presidential candidate; however, their Presidential preference and gender will be listed. The candidates for the one alternate delegate position will be listed separately. Democrats are permitted to vote for a delegate even if he
T
or she is pledged to the presidential candidate the voter does not support. In fact, in the 2nd Congressional District, neither Democratic presidential candidate has 14 pledged delegates on the ballot. Therefore, a voter will have to vote for one or more opposing delegates, if he or she wants to cast all 14 of his/her votes. Splitting votes between the delegates pledged to each presidential candidate will have no effect on the outcome of the presidential preference contest, nor will it affect the number of delegates pledged to either candidate—that is based on the outcome of the preference contest. With this in mind, the Democratic Committee of Lower Merion and Narberth (DCLMN) recently endorsed the five delegate candidates who live in Lower Merion or Narberth: three pledged to Hillary Clinton (Mark Aronchick, Mary Jo Daley, and Joe Foster), and two pledged to Bernie Sanders (Bill Leopold and Carol Rose Fleischman), in order to increase the likelihood that Lower Merion and Narberth will have some representation at the convention. For a more in-depth look at the selection of the PA delegation to the DNC, including how the remaining pledged delegates are selected and details about the superdelegates, you can read a report prepared by David Dormont and Bill Madway of DCLMN, available at http://bit.ly/DCLMN-PA-DNCDelegates. In addition, the Montgomery County Democratic Committee (MCDC) has compiled information about all of the Democratic candidates who will be on the ballot in the county, including delegate candidates (see http://www.mcdems.org/ Candidates). This information also indicates which candidates have been endorsed by the members of the county committee. On the Republican side, Pennsylvania has been allocated 71 delegates for the Republican National Convention. Fiftyfour (54) will be elected at the Congressional District level during the PA Primary, with three selected in each of Pennsylvania’s 18 congressional districts. Interestingly, according to the rules of the Republican State Committee of Pennsylvania, all delegates elected at the district-level are unbound, meaning they are not permitted to officially commit to any particular presidential candidate. Voters will vote separately for three alternates in each Congressional District. Pennsylvania Republicans will also send 14 at-large delegates – chosen at the State GOP’s Summer Meeting on May 20 – and three delegates who are state members of the National Republican Committee. These 17 delegates are bound, for the first ballot at the convention, to the GOP presidential candidate who receives the most votes in the PA primary. Republican voters can visit https://www.gop.com/the-official-guide-tothe-2016-republican-nominating-process/ to learn more about the delegate selection process. Unlike the common image of candidates being chosen by political insiders in smoke-filled rooms, Democrats and Republicans in Pennsylvania will have a critical say in which candidates appear on on their party’s ballot in the fall. So do your homework using the resources described above and other sources, and make a plan to get to the polls on April 26. Then make sure you follow through on your plan.

LM Players Presents Red Herring High school student-run theater organization produces its spring comedy April 28 - 30 ower Merion High School’s all student theater run organization, LM Players, presents its spring murder mystery comedy, Red Herring. The show opens April 28 at 7 p.m. and continues until April 30 in the Lower Merion High School Auditorium located at 315 E. Montgomery Avenue, Ardmore, PA 19003. This hilarious farce takes place in America during the Cold War, and it stylistically resembles the noir genre of that era. The plot follows headstrong detectives working to uncover a case involving murder, espionage, and the red scare—all while dealing with explosive love lives of their own. This chaos comes to life with the direction of Emily Harnett ’17, who agrees that the most unique parts of the show is the constant change in location. “This aspect of the show sets it apart from others; it allows the audience to delve deeper into the lives of the characters and meaning of the story.” While this creates insight for the audience, it also poses a challenge for the Andrew Stern (’19) and Jake Gurevitch (’18) build the set of “Red Herring.” Photo/courtesy Sam Gamberg Players’ production and design staff. “In order for each setting to be an accurate representation of a scene, Players is using periactoids,” Harnett said, “which are big cubes that rotate and each side can set up a new location.” These will make transitions easier; rather than creating new set pieces for every location, one set piece can be used to identify multiple. Over one hundred LM students have worked to create this production, and they have been fortunate enough to meet the playwright, Michael Hollinger, who is a professor at Villanova. The company of Red Herring met Hollinger in the school’s black-box theater to present Costumes designer Maura Hess (’16) constructs selected scenes and particia dress for Lower Merion High School’s upcoming pate in a question and answer production, “Red Herring,” April 28, 29, and 30. session. Designers, crewmemPhoto/courtesy Sam Gamberg bers, and actors alike had the opportunity to ask Hollinger about his original vision for the show as well as his playwriting process. Students left with an understanding of the show’s background and perhaps new inspirations for their creative processes. LM Players has been a completely student run theater organization since it began in 1965. Students take on three productions per year: a fall musical, a winter black box show, and a spring main stage show. However, this season is special for Players because the organization is producing two student written plays as a fourth production. While it will be smaller scale, it will be a chance to see what students are capable of entirely alone. Red Herring will be showing April 28, 29, and 30 at 7 p.m. in the LM Auditorium and tickets can be found at www.lmplayers.com/tickets or purchased at the door. Prices are $8 for students/seniors and $12 for adults. Parking space is available at the front of the school and in the back bus circle. Email publicity@lmplayers.com for information.

ingerprinting, a visit from a medical helicopter and a chance to meet an arson-detecting dog – this is definitely not an ordinary summer camp for kids. Parents looking for a unique learning opportunity for their children are encouraged to check out the Narberth Ambulance Emergency Medical Services Camp, being held for the first time this summer. The camp is designed to teach young participants the ins and outs of firefighting, police work, first aid and rescue services. The all-day camp will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. June 21-24 at Narberth Ambulance (101 Sibley Ave. in Ardmore) and is designed for children ages 10 to 14. The $150 registration fee covers the cost of camp, a T-shirt and a water bottle. “Kids will be engaged in all types of hands-on activities,” said Marie Eckman, Narberth’s Lieutenant of Operations. “They’ll have the opportunity to visit the 911 Center to see how it works, and go into a smoke trailer and learn how to crawl in and get back out safely.” Other exciting events during the four-day camp include: • A visit from a medical helicopter and its on-flight crew, who will explain when this form of emergency transportation is necessary. • Fingerprinting, bike safety, stranger danger, first aid and CPR will be conducted by the

Happy Mother’s Day from The Fresh Air Fund other’s Day is a special occasion to celebrate the women in our lives who take the time to care for us. Many women in Main Line take on the role of Fresh Air mom, as they open their hearts to New York City children through The Fresh Air Fund’s Friendly Towns Program. This Mother’s Day, consider sharing the pure joys of summer with a Fresh Air child. Each summer, nearly 4,000 children visit volunteer host families in rural, suburban, and small town communities along the East Coast from North Carolina to Maine and Southern Canada. Host families simply want to share their homes with city children and the pure joys of summertime outside of the city. First-time Fresh Air visitors are seven to 12-years-old, and Fresh Air hosts range from young families to grandparents. All it takes is the willingness to welcome a New York City child to your community. “Hosting a Fresh Air child has a great impact on your own family. The gift is really to us, not to just our Fresh Air child, Carlos. It’s an opportunity for our children to learn, and it opens their eyes to things may not have known. It also gives my children and Carlos a sense of pride,” says Jennifer, a Fresh Air host mother. Fresh Air volunteers need your help to create another fun-filled summer for children from New York City! The Fresh Air Fund, an independent, not-for-profit agency, has provided free summer experiences to more than 1.8 million New York City children from low-income communities since 1877. To learn more about hosting a Fresh Air child this summer, contact Colin Reinstedt at 212-897-8970 or The Fresh Air Fund at www.freshair.org.

On Saturday, April 9, despite the spring snow storm, The Baldwin School community, including parents, faculty, staff, trustees and alumnae gathered for the School’s annual Parent Gala and Auction. Guests enjoyed an evening of cocktails, dinner, dancing and live and silent auctions. There was also student entertainment throughout the evening, including the Lower School girls dressing the part for this year’s theme “Passport to Baldwin” and singing numerous songs including “It’s a Small World.” The simplicity of electronic bidding gave guests more time to mingle and vie for trips to exotic destinations, Baldwin teacher treasures and class masterpieces. The support of this year’s Gala will provide financial scholarships to academically deserving students and will enhance academic, athletic and performing arts programs, helping Baldwin girls reach their full potential. Last year, the 2015 Gala raised more than $500,000 for The Baldwin School. This year’s Gala paid special tribute and served as a formal farewell to Head of School Sally Powell for her decade-long leadership and service to the School.

Neumann Knights Repeat as National Champions in Roller Hockey
April 20 – April 26, 2016

Friends’ Central Debate Team Finishes Second in State Parliamentary Debate
he Neumann Knights brought home a second consecutive national championship in roller hockey on April 9. The club defeated the University of Nevada at Las Vegas (UNLV), 4-1, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to capture the crown. During the last two seasons, Neumann is 69-2 (a winning percentage of .971), playing against much larger colleges from across the country. The club’s 35-1 mark this year surpassed its 34-1 record in 2014-15. Dr. Rosalie Mirenda, Neumann’s president, sent her congratulations to Coach Lee Strofe and the team late Saturday night, noting that the Knights joined the Villanova Wildcats as the second team to bring a national title to Delaware County in the span of a week. The Knights never trailed in the championship match. Junior P.J. DiMartino broke open a scoreless contest with two goals in the second period – one short-handed and one on a power play. After UNLV narrowed the Knights’ lead to 2-1 early in the final period, sophomore Tyler Kraft pushed the margin back to two goals with a score at the 9:12 mark. DiMartino iced the game and notched a hat trick with an empty-net goal late in the third period. Goalie Mike Maczynski, a senior, racked up 16 saves in the win. In the two Final Four games, the Knights outscored their opponents 14-2, including a 10-1 blowout of Michigan State in the semi-finals. The National Collegiate Roller Hockey Association (NCRHA) invited 24 teams to participate in the tournament (out of more than 170 member clubs nationwide). In early matches, played on April 6 and 7 for seeding, the Knights beat Bethel University, 3-2; UNLV, 3-2; and the University of Missouri at St. Louis, 8-3. With the field narrowed to 16 clubs for the single-elimination tourney, Neumann drubbed the University of Rhode Island, 15-0, and Farmingdale State College, 6-3, on April 8 to reach the Final Four. In their last four tournament games, the Knights outscored their opponents 35-5. Neumann won Division II roller hockey titles in 2006 and 2008 in addition to the Division I championships in 2015 and 2016.
n April 8 and 9, the Friends’ Central School Upper School Debate Team traveled to Susquehanna University to compete in the Pennsylvania High School Speech League (PHSSL) State Debate Tournament, finishing second in the entire state of Pennsylvania in the Parliamentary Debate. The team, consisting of seniors Austin Margulies, Avital Schweitzer, and Lily Snider, qualified for the PHSSL State Championship after finishing second in the District 10 Parliamentary Debate in February. Then, last weekend at Susquehanna University’s State Championship, they advanced to the finals in a field of 24 teams in the category of Parliamentary Debate, besting last year’s State Champions, South Western High School in Hanover, PA, in the quarterfinal round and defeating the District 10 first place finishers, rival Harriton High School, in the semifinal round, to finish second in the state. Although they finally succumbed to Mount St. Clair High School, a debate powerhouse from Pittsburgh, PA, the FCS team members, and their supportive advisor, Upper School math teacher Brad Morris, could not be more thrilled with their performance. Avital Schweitzer comments, “It was surreal. We did not expect it at all.” Austin Margulies shares, “A team like us, one that focuses on style and content, not just content, doesn’t usually get recognized. But this year, our form was recognized as valuable.” Austin, Avital, and Lily have been participating in the Debate Team together for all four years of their Upper School career, making this a true team experience for the three of them. Avital Schweitzer explains, “We are friends who work really well together. We function as a team, not as individuals on a team. Other teams don’t value that teamwork aspect as much.” Lily Snider also shares, “The three of us are all so connected to one another, and our styles complement each other in a way that’s almost telepathic. We’ve really gotten this thing perfected, after being together since freshmen year.” Relying on what they’ve learned in the classroom at Friends’ Central instead of cramming last-minute facts during the Debate itself, which is what many other teams do, is a significant difference between the FCS team and other teams. Morris explains, “Friends’ Central’s values, as well as the students’ academic experiences, were clearly reflected in their arguments. Whether the topic was affirmative action or literature

They were also able to relax, have fun, and enjoy the entire experience of being at the State Championship, something that not every team is able to do. Morris shares, “One of the things that set this team apart was the way our students worked together. They seemed to debate as one with passion and conviction. It was clear that they were really enjoying the experience together. They were a true team, and they were having fun.” Austin shares, “We had the most compassion during our debates, and we were the team that was staying after our debate, talking to the judges. We made it so far because we run on passion.”

of Sierra’s comeback tour, she’s ready to rock once more, but finds she may be looking for a rush that only exists in her memory. Sierra hits the road with her catalogue of classics, encountering nothing but roadblocks from journalists, business managers, and younger musicians who are all doubtful about this middle-aged woman in black leather and combat boots—an LP rocker going for broke in an iTunes world. As Sierra’s tour grinds on, we join Abby at her high school reunion, where we meet her friends—more of the parents, professionals, and suburbanites who, in their youth, worshipped at Sierra’s feet. We meet Abby’s grandmother, who’s over the hill and over the nonsense of being anybody’s Nana. We meet another faded star, Daphne Thundergrass, who turned one season as a 1970s TV superhero into a lifetime career as a self-help guru. “I Will Not Go Gently” holds aloft a cast of characters who are in the middle of their lives. Some are kicking and screaming, some are asking for directions, and some are questioning every life choice, fighting the world and their own self-doubt as they each try for a comeback of their own. Throughout the story, Sierra Mist’s music is their soundtrack. To create the show’s soundtrack, Jennifer Childs partnered with Barrymore Award-winning sound designer and composer Christopher Colucci. Together they dove into their own musical memories, drawing inspiration from musicians like Liz Phair, Patti Smith, Ramones, and Joan Jett to create a soundtrack that would propel the story of “I Will Not Go Gently,” as well as stand on its own as a greatest hits package from Jen Childs’ fictional rock heroine. Colucci says of their collaboration, “Jen’s original impulse was to be thinking about Liz Phair and I got really excited about that as, when I started making music years ago, I was influenced by her as well—that kind of artful, punk, lo-fi energy. Then she threw Joan Jett into the mix and we were off. This is the first time I’ve ever written music in this style, but it brings me back to my days of doing live gigs and it’s super exciting to be playing it again.” All of the songs soundtracked or performed live in “I Will Not Go Gently” will be available on 1812 Productions’ first-ever album release, I Will Not Go Gently: The Soundtrack, available for purchase on CD at each performance, and available for download on iTunes, Amazon.com, and CDBaby. The CD release will include liner notes with full lyrics and personal notes on each track by Jennifer Childs. Songs will be available for preview mid-April on 1812 Productions’ website, www.1812productions.org, and social media pages. The album will be available for download on April 21. Barrymore Award-winner Harriet Power returns to 1812 to take the director’s seat for “I Will Not Go Gently” after a six-month workshop and development process, working one on one with Jennifer Childs. “I Will Not Go Gently” also welcomes the powerful design team of Lance Kniskern (set designer), Jorge Cousineau (video designer), Shelley Hicklin (lighting designer), and Rosemarie McKelvey (costume designer). These four artists have worked collaboratively on more than a dozen 1812 Productions shows and have once again brought their talents to bear on a production that ranges in aesthetic from rock concert to suburban living room, from backstage tour to high school cafeteria. Written in sections, character by character and song by song, over the course of a year, “I Will Not Go Gently” brings the much maligned, and surprisingly revolutionary, process of aging to the stage in a group of voices that are deadly sincere and unstoppably hopeful. On her inspiration for “I Will Not Go Gently,” Childs says, “I remember watching American Idol one night and the rap group Salt-n-Pepa was performing as a part of a throwback ‘80s Night.’ I was a huge fan of theirs growing up and was shocked when they came on screen looking like middle aged women. Not that they shouldn’t look like middle aged women, as they certainly are, but in that brief moment they no longer aligned with this powerful memory I have of them. I had this split-second thought, ‘Oh my goodness, if they are old, then I must be old.’ That was my first step into the creation of the Sierra Mist character.” Childs continues, “Finding myself at the doorstep of middle age really surprised me. I had all these assumptions about who I’d be, how together my life would be, and how I’d handle the aging process with wit and grace. None of these assumptions turned out to be true. The truth is far more complicated, richer, juicier. I think so often that popular comedy about aging is simplified—reduced to jokes about Viagra or sagging cleavage. I listen to friends who are in this middle time of their lives and they speak alternately about feeling more powerful than ever, more confused than ever, more creative than ever and more invisible than ever. I Will Not Go Gently explores that place of liminality.” “I Will Not Go Gently” will be performed from April 21 through May 15 at Plays and Players Theatre, 1714 Delancey Street in Center City. Opening night will be Wednesday, April 27 at 7 p.m. Tickets range from $28-$42 and are available at 215-592-9560 or online at www.1812productions.org.

F R E E PCOM D I V E R S I T Y C O N F E R E N C E FOCUSES ON DISABILITY he Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM) Department of Psychology and the student group Culturally Aware Psychology Students will host their seventh annual Diversity Conference on April 30. Titled “Demystifying Disability: A Cross-Cultural Approach,” the event aims to foster a deeper understanding of the unique strengths and challenges of the neurodiverse community—those living with neurological and developmental disorders. Yuma Tomes, PhD, professor, psychology and conference director, says raising awareness of the issues often faced by these individuals can lead to a more inclusive environment for everyone. “Diversity is not just a socioeconomic or racial issue. There is another group within our society who has much to offer, yet is still being marginalized. By raising awareness of their issues, we can work to establish a sense of normalcy and ensure they can be productive members of our shared experience,” Tomes says. The keynote speaker will be Eric R. Mitchell, PhD, who will discuss the cultural identity development implications that can occur with a diagnosis of Autism, including some aspects of prejudice, discrimination, marginalization, solidarity, resilience and the responsibility of communities to empower change. Mitchell is director of autism and psychological services for Foundations Behavioral Health in Doylestown, PA, and is the author of “Putting It Together: The Autism and Asperger’s Handbook.” The event will take place on PCOM’s campus at 4170 City Ave., in the Ginsburg Auditorium of Evans Hall. The conference is free and opened to the public but advance registration is required. To view the full program and register, visit www.pcom.edu/academics/academic-departments/psychology/diversity-in-psychology/diversity-conference/2016-diversity-conference.html.

local police department. • An arson dog, owned by a local fire chief, and a drug-sniffing police dog, will visit students as they learn about how the dogs are used. Narberth Ambulance Chief Christopher Flanagan said the camp is not only a fun adventure for children, but also a way for Narberth Ambulance to engage with the local community. “We want to enrich our young people and to help them see what we do as a career or volunteer opportunity,” he said. “We also want to connect with and educate the community so they know what we do every day.” Flanagan said he has seen other public safety camps and decided something similar would be a great idea for the communities served by Narberth Ambulance. “The most important thing is that the kids have fun, and we hope parents are better informed at the end of it,” he said. “It also serves a purpose for our staff in that it shows them a different way to engage with the community in an educational way – by working with its youngest citizens.” A maximum of 30 children can be enrolled in the program, so early registration is recommended. For information or to register, call 610-645-7770, stop by the station, located at 101 Sibley Ave. in Ardmore, or email Marie Eckman at MarieEckman@narberthambulance.org. Application deadline is June 14. Founded in 1944, Narberth Ambulance is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to providing high-quality, pre-hospital care and medical transportation to the 95,000 community members living in Lower Merion, Narberth, Conshohocken and West Conshohocken. Annually, Narberth Ambulance responds to 6,000 calls for emergency medical and advanced lifesaving support services. Visit www.narberthambulance.org to learn more or to support Narberth Ambulance.

have included children and journalists. After arrest, Manning was held in solitary confinement and extreme conditions for three years before being sentenced in 2013 to 35 years in military prison. She is eligible for parole in 2020. Although thoroughly researched, “The Radicalisation of Bradley Manning” is a fictionalized biography written while Manning was awaiting trial. Non-linear sliding between active service and incarceration, the play also explores Manning’s teenage years as his parents’ marriage crumbled through Manning’s isolation and struggles with being gay in the military. Taken to the town of Haverfordwest, Wales, by his mother after the divorce, the play explores the influences and attitudes that helped to shape Chelsea, as well as Manning’s growing sense of destiny. One thing is for sure, Manning may have had an attitude problem and may have had a problem following orders, but Manning’s actions forced us to confront what was done in our country’s name. They also ignited a firestorm of many more crucial and challenging questions. The American premiere of “The Radicalisation of Bradley Manning” is directed by Tom Reing and stars Trevor Fayle, David Glover, Campbell O’Hare, David Pica, Johnny Smith and Isa St. Clair. The show’s honorary producer is Anne Vogelmann. “The Radicalisation of Bradley Manning” opens on Friday, April 29 at 8 p.m., with previews on Wednesday, April 27 and Thursday, April 28 at 7 p.m. “The Radicalisation of Bradley Manning” runs for a total of 16 performances, through May 15, 2016. All shows are at the Proscenium Theatre at The Drake, 203 South Hicks Street. South Hicks Street is right next to The Drake apartment building at 1512 Spruce Street. Tickets are on sale for $25 and $30 by calling 215-454-9776 or visiting www.inisnuatheThe Million Dollar Bike Ride Fundraiser atre.org.
