Melanie Marnich's whimsical comedy "Blur" tells the story of a young woman losing her sight due to a genetic disease. As blindness unravels 17-year-old Dot Di Prima's life, she discovers the special kind of vision she'll need to thrive and forge relationships with spirit, humor and hope as she adapts to being guided by her heart rather than her sight. A special performance will be translated by audio describer Andrea Day for the sight-impaired 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 23, 2013.TICKET PRICES: Free to $17.
