Celebrate Wright's Heritage -
As a child of the 'tell instead of read me a story' era, Wright urges all to attend an event that enables the ability to identify and record community heritage. In her book, Eco-legacy - a millennium woman's heritage which is dedicated to the people of her community Laurel Historic District, she invites readers to walk on a path worn smooth by generational expectation. Savor nostalgia for the places that are near and dear to heart, recall community/family traditions; but perhaps more importantly, renew community experiences. Described as heartfelt by the Fredericksburg Free Lance Star newspaper and identified as a Virginia 'notable book' by the Richmond Times Dispatch, readers of Wright's life-style writings are advised to read more in the rhythm of a poem and let Wright's essays and poems speak to them. Published in paper print, copies of Eco-legacy - a millennium woman's heritage will be available during the festival and are available at Laurel Gallery located at 2805 Hungary Road in Richmond (Henrico) Virginia or through Wright's LuLu Sylvia's Store option, http://stores.lulu.com/syhwright.

It was during my undergrad years at Sam Houston State University that I was introduced to the writings of Edward Albee. Every so often there's a playwright that comes along and changes the landscape of the American Theatre. It was in 1963 when WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? debuted on Broadway and shook the foundation of the theatre world. Albee's work delves into the human psyche with an in-depth view of relationships, marriage, and sex. His presence will be truly missed but his mark on the theatre world is undoubtedly immortal.
