The next readings of ten-minute plays in the Limbo Project are this Friday, 7:30, at the Drake Performance and Event Center, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio.  Three of the playwrights will be in attendance.  Readings are free, as is parking in the lot between the towers.  The plays and readers are:

Jan. 25   Ohio State University, New Works Lab, Drake Performance and Event Center, 1849 Cannon Drive; free parking in the lot between the towers   7:30 p.m.

Katherine Burkman, Columbus, Ohio:  E-Mails From the Dead  man receives emails from the other side
Maureen Brady Johnson, Oberlin, Ohio:  Limbo  Limbo has been abolished, but that puts two people out of a job
Nancy Gall-Clayton, Louisville, Kentucky:  Terminal L    various people discover that a waiting room can be forever
John Kuhn, Columbus, Ohio:  The Edge  two mature women on beach
Rebecca Nesvet, Cheltenham, United Kingdom:  Galileo in the Underworld  Pope’s forgiveness of Galileo upsets arrangements in Hell  
Alan Woods, Columbus, Ohio:  Limbo, Ohio   Willy Loman discovers that suicide isn’t exactly an ending 

Readers:  John Kuhn, Frank Barnhart, Cate Blair-Wilhelm, Tatyana Yassenov

This Friday is the feast day of St. Gregory of Nazianzus, who posited the existence of Limbo in the 4th century, C.E.  Last spring, the Roman Catholic Church declared that Limbo never existed, and that St. Gregory was mistaken.
