SUMMARY:"Maisy" by Lundy Bancroft- play reading
DESCRIPTION:Middle-aged and newly separated\, Kenneth arrives at his elderl
 y aunt Maisy's house in search of family and possibly solace\, only to dis
 cover her dementia and memories are not what he expected. A sometimes funn
 y and sometimes frustrating afternoon of tea and revelations ensues.\n\nFe
 aturing Louise Krieger as Maisy and Lundy Bancroft as Kenneth. Directed by
  Jean Koester. Talk-backs after each performance. A donation at the door w
 ould be appreciated.\n\nPerformance dates: Saturday\, Oct. 28\, 7pm and Su
 nday\, Oct. 29\, 2pm.\n\nJean Koester:\nI have lived in the Pioneer Valley
  for 30+ years and have performed in the Valley for nearly as long. So\, t
 his role is a new direction for me – pun intended. Starting with The Dix
 ie Swim Club in 2018\, and then Dancing at Lughnasa last spring\, I have h
 ad the pleasure of returning to directing\, after a very\, very long hiatu
 s\, and I love it. When I first read Lundy’s play\, I immediately wanted
  to direct it. It is such a great pleasure to work with Louise and Lundy a
 nd I know you will enjoy their reading of Maisy.\n\nLouise Krieger:\nLouis
 e has been treading the boards on many Valley stages for the past few deca
 des\, most recently appearing as Emily Dickinson in The Belle of Amherst a
 nd as Hertha Ayrton in The Half Life of Marie Curie. A relatively new part
 icipant in The LAVA Center’s Readers’ Theater\, she’s delighted to w
 ork with Lundy and Jean on putting Maisy at least partially on its feet in
  this reading format. In addition to feet\, we think Maisy has heart AND l
 egs\, and look forward to sharing Maisy and Kenneth’s story with you.\n\
 nLundy Bancroft:\nLundy's recent roles include the villain Rev. David Lee 
 in The Foreigner at Ja'Duke in Turners Falls\, and Dr. Watson in Baskervil
 le performed by the Outrageous Misfortunates in Williamsburg (sorry\, not 
 Williamstown -- if only). There are a couple of additional roles he should
  have gotten but directors mistakenly cast someone else\, probably due to 
 a mix-up in phone numbers.\n\nMaisy is the first play Lundy has written. H
 e is also the author of a suspense novel\, In Custody\, which has thrilled
  the dozen\, or perhaps even more\, people who've purchased it.
