Three weeks ago I was in NYC and gave Magnolia and Crumbs' red velvet cupcakes another chance...mainly because it was Valentines Day (Can you REALLY have any other cupcake on this holiday besides red velvet?

Darkened by the invention of the light bulb…
I recently attended a talk our Artistic Director gave at the Barrington Public Library in which he talked about the future of American theater and its place in our democracy. He brought up topics like why it seems so easy for people (and politicians) to dismiss theater and art in our current economy and how theater functions... Continue Reading →
