MATCH POINT

by Harry Schmidt
Monday, March 15 at 7 p.m.

The comedy displays the conflict between the dedicated tennis players and those who want to protect the cherished old oak tree which would have to be chopped down. This great disturbance attracts a ghost - the founder of the tennis club - and the attention of a talking dog who loves trees.

BLUE WILLOW

by Kim Hanna
Monday, March 22 at 7 p.m.

Lian has it all . . . including an extensive collection of blue willow china. But through a series of events, she finds herself homeless. All that remains of her former life are pieces of her precious china collection. Unwilling to acknowledge the magnitude of her situation, or even that she is homeless, Lian continues a downward descent until fate brings her to a tent city nestled under an overpass on the banks of a river, clinging to what's really important to her- one last piece of blue willow china. It's here that Lian discovers exactly what losing it all - and finding out what's truly important - really means.
