Photo Preview: FAITH HEALER At The Guthrie
By: Gabrielle Sierra Jul. 16, 2009
Guthrie Director Joe Dowling, known throughout Ireland and the United States as a preeminent director and scholar of Brian Friel's work, honors the legendary Irish playwright's 80th birthday by returning to his acting roots to play the title role in this powerful play about faith healer Frank Hardy, his wife Grace and talent manager Teddy. Haunted by shared memories, each character relays their own version of a single story and how they are ultimately broken by a final, fatal event. Dowling will take to the stage opposite Sally Wingert (Third) and Raye Birk (Scrooge in A Christmas Carol).
