Theater Voices will present the 2ND production of its 2010-2011
season, a staged reading of TRYING by Joanna McClelland Glass
directed by Carol Charniga.
Performances will be given at Steamer No. 10 Theatre, 500 Western
Avenue in Albany on Friday, October 15 at 8, Saturday October 16 at 3
and 8, and Sunday October 17 at 3. Admission is free.
This bittersweet play is set in 1967 when Francis Biddle—Attorney
General under FDR and Chief Judge of the Nuremberg trials—is 81 years
old and struggling defiantly with age and failing health. His wife
has forced upon him a new secretary, Sarah—all of 25 years old—and
the two try to find a way to communicate. These two strangers, at
dramatically different places in their lives, influence one another
in touching and unexpected ways. Trying is based upon Glass’ own
experience as Biddle’s personal secretary.
