<b><br>
Novelist, screenwriter and playwright Graham Greene's "The Potting
Shed" is a Tony-nominated 1950's drama weaving together a family
mystery with a mystery of faith. Twelve Civic Players and Capital area
actors are featured in this production.<br><br>As a formerly famous
aetheist scholar, Henry Callifer, lies on his deathbed, his estranged
son James (played by <i>Peter Caracappa</i>) arrives at the family
mansion, where the once-great man's loved ones are gathered, to pay
his final respects. But his mother Mary Callifer (<i>Barbara Petersen</i>)
bars him from seeing the dying patriarch. Why? Mary's precocious
teenaged granddaughter Anne (<i>Sophia Raup</i>) sets about to uncover
the family secret, which James has blacked from his memory -- but
which has torn his marriage to Sara (Melissa Bergin) asunder. The
mystery revolves around another mysterious family member, Father
William Callifer (<i>Konrad Raup</i>); a long-ago summer; and a
shocking incident in the garden shed... and possibly, something
miraculous.<br><br>Also in the cast are <i>George Filieau</i> as
Henry's devoted acolyte, Dr. Frederic Baston; <i>William Sanderson</i>
as Anne's widowed father, John Callifer; <i>Pat Brady</i> as Mrs.
Potter, widow of the family's loyal former gardener; <i>John Quinan</i>
as Corner, James' flatmate; <i>Allison Aumick</i> as psychologist Dr.
Kreuzer; and <i>Margot Phillips</i> as Father Callifer's housekeeper,
Mrs. Callahan. <i>Mary Darcy</i> narrates the staged reading, which is
directed by <i>Joe Phillips</i>, who helmed "Our Country's Good" for
SCP several seasons ago. </b>
