Thought you might like to have this link to the Frank Stasio show The State of Things, which featured a chilling monologue by Jeff Alguire, an argument scene between a mother and adult daughter featuring Jessicia Hieroniums and Christine Rogers, and discussion of my play Creeds by director Paul Paliyenko.
http://wunc.org/tsot/archive/Creeds.mp3/view?searchterm=creeds
The first two nights the audiences have been great, and the cast outstanding. Ticket sales are good but I'm sure there will be walk-ups available every night.(It is March Madness time) If you can, go on a Friday or Saturday, when Anya Russian opens the show with a stunning Dance Overture. It only runs through April 1, Thursday through Sunday, at Common Ground Theater in Durham.

This “forever” stamp celebrates the 100th anniversary of the cherry trees in Washington, D.C.
ひさかたのひかりのどけき春の日にしづ心なく花の散るらん
hisakata no hikari nodokeki harunohi ni shizugokoro naku hana no chiruran
紀友則
Ki no Tomonori (c.850–c.904)
the light filling the air
is so mild this spring day
only the cherry blossoms
keep falling in haste—
why is that so?
Translated by Emiko Miyashita and Michael Dylan Welch
