The First production of the true start of the new Millennium will be Lunacy by Patricia Weaver Francisco. A fictionalized account of a historical event. The first American woman astronaut to go into space. But Twenty years earlier, thirteen American women pilots successfully completed the preliminary physical and psychological testing given the Mercury astronauts. They believed at least one of their number would eventually go into space, but their testing program was abruptly canceled in 1962 and they faded from public view.
Progress is a series of individual acts of courage.
To appreciate it, sometimes we must look back. This play is a tribute to some forgotten women of history and a fascinating look at the meaning of independence and achievement for women. Lunacy will be directed by Sue Hennessy and auditions will be held December 18 and 19 at 7pm. Performances will be February 8,9 and 10 at 7pm.
