This winter at Tenth Street Theatre more than 20 lamps brighten the In Tandem Theatre Stage and recall the three generation history of an Irish American family named Duddy. Milwaukee bred playwright and Marquette University graduate Michael Neville reprises his semi-autobiographical play Lamps for My Family, where each lamp on stage remembers a light that a person in his family read by in the Duddy homestead, and metaphorically symbolizes the light they gave to Jack's life growing up. A play originally developed because of Neville's commitment to new works through his Playwrights Studio Theater, Neville lives and works in Milwaukee, and at In Tandem a beloved hometown actor Mark Corkins embodies Jack Duddy, a psychiatrist returning from New York after his divorce to care for his elderly relatives.
