I saw 17 shows, which included readings of plays by well-known local playwrights, new works by rising stars, and some fun genre-bending original performances. Here are my notes about the final set. If you missed my firs...

On my way to Shaking the Tree Theatre to see Tennessee Williams' THE GLASS MENAGERIE, I realized I had seen more comical adaptations of the play, ranging from gently ribbing to outright farcical, than actual productions of it....
