Directed by Nancy Wilder, this richly scripted true story illustrates how strangers, at opposite extremes of life, can poignantly and humorously forever influence each other. ‘Trying’ is about a "green" young girl, fresh off the Canadian prairie and an old aristocratic curmudgeon "trying" to negotiate and span the enormous differences of youth and age, and of class and culture. The author's real-life experience in the mid-60's is the basis for the play, when she worked as a secretary for Francis Biddle at his home in Washington, D.C. Judge Biddle had been Attorney General under <span class=yshortcuts>Franklin Roosevelt</span>. After the war, President Truman named him Chief judge of the Tribunal at Nuremberg. Dates are Oct. 14, 15, 21 & 22 at <span class=yshortcuts>8pm</span> and <span class=yshortcuts>Oct. 16</span> & 23 at <span class=yshortcuts>2:30pm</span>. Tickets are $16, under 18 $10 and reservations can be made at <span class=yshortcuts>518-674-2007</span> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>or <a href="http://www.slca-ctp.org" target="_blank"><span class=yshortcuts><span style='color:blue;text-decoration:none'>www.slca-ctp.org</span></span></a>.
