A Glowing Testimonial About "Damien"

Hey, I wanted to share this email from my pal Stewart Duke. He writes:
Last night I experienced Theatre, as in my humble estimation, was as wonderful as Theatre can get!

Our dear friend Paul Nease did the one man show Damien at The Huntington Art Museum Theatre - Paul was simply great - bringing out the pathos, empathy, care and frustration of Father Damien, a Priest who ministered to the LEPERS on Molokai, Hawaii during the 1800s, who himself died of Leprosy.

The language and words were beautifully written and Paul managed to bring feelings to those words that were moving, inspiring and often very thought provoking - the stage setting was simple, almost understated - the show relied totally on Paul's interpretations as an actor, both verbally and physically!

If there is any way you can manage to see it, I certainly recommend that you do so.
The final performance takes the stage this afternoon at 3:00 p.m., so don't miss it!
