Collected Stories -BHSU-Spearfish-Location:
Woodburn Hall Join the BHSU Theatre students Feb. 25 for
the opening performance of Collected Stories by Donald
Margulies. The perfomance will begin at 7:30 pm in
Woodburn Hall. A respected short-story writer and teacher
in her mid-fifties, Ruth Steiner has carved out a
comfortable life for herself in a Greenwich Village
apartment she has occupied for decades. Lisa Morrison is a
callow yet talented 26-year-old graduate student and
aspiring writer, a child of suburban privilege, when she
meets Ruth and offers to become her assistant. Over six
years, in as many scenes, Collected Stories eavesdrops on
Ruth and Lisa as their relationship evolves (from mentor/protegee
to loving friends to adversaries) and ultimately
disintegrates -- touching on issues of age, artistic
liscense, and betrayal. For more information about the
theatre program visit www.BHSU.edu/Theatre
