Brigit Saint Brigit Theatre Company Presents “Rising—A One Act” adapted by Lisabeth C.

The performance will be followed by a talkback with the cast.

“Rising” is directed by Cathy Kurz, the artistic director of the Brigit St Brigit Theatre Company. The cast includes Eric Griffith as The Witness; Lisabeth C. Buchelt as An Chailleach; and Barry Murphy as The Poet.

Doors open at 11:00 AM. Seating is limited.
