NEW - A very special co-production!

A poignant and poetic play set in 1929 Florida in a Cuban-American cigar factory.

FUNDRAISER!!!
Two performances of "Bold Grace: The Voyages of the Pirate O'Malley" - Save the dates! September 7 and 8, 2012.
Written by Ashley Schalow and featuring the riveting performance of Anna Richardson and stellar directing by Steve Cooper.
This exhilarating one-woman performance "Bold Grace" follows the life and times of real-life 16th-century Irish pirate, Grace O'Malley. Beginning with her first voyage with her father at the age of nine, Grace re-lives key points in her life until her death in 1603. Grace lived a full life, including pirating up and down the Irish coast, leading an army of 200 loyal fighting men and her own fleet of ships, two marriages, four children (one born while Grace was at sea), and even a documented face-to-face meeting with Queen Elizabeth I. (Run time is approx. 2 hours and 10 minutes including intermission.)
Not appropriate for children under 12, due to some adult language.
This is BLT's big annual fundraiser! Tickets are pay-what-you-want, and donations are encouraged. (Dress like a pirate if you dare.) BLT depends upon you. Please help BLT continue to produce better live theater. Don't be a scurvy dog! Please give what you can and enjoy the show!
