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.

BIO:DIP is a neologism, a parallel not a pair. It is two bodies of work that come into contact, and, in the way of bodies, react to one another. BIO:DIP is dialogue, not synthesis. Each body is invoked by a system with its own internal economies, its own sources of nourishment and regulation, as well as its own tactility, material identity, and by-product. Each is in its own way a circulation system designed around sensory exchange. Where they mingle they do so atmospherically. As the two bodies infuse the air itself, they connect not just to one another but, through the respiratory system, to those of the audience itself.
