 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.**
