Summary

Six Characters in Search of an Author (Italian: Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore) is a 1921 Italian play by Luigi Pirandello, first performed in that year. An absurdist metatheatrical play about the relationship between authors, their characters, and theatre practitioners, it premiered at the Teatro Valle in Rome to a mixed reception, with shouts from the audience of "Manicomio!" ("Madhouse!") and "Incommensurabile!" ("Incommensurable!"), a reference to the play's illogical progression

    Just Like You 
You’re my hope. You’re my hero. 
You know all I am and what I can be. 
Take this hard heart and make it like yours. 
Holy Father, I need your heart. 
  
You’re my heart. You’re my hero. 
Let my life reflect your love. 
Give me eyes to see past walls. 
Give me ears to hear heart cries. 
Give me hands that heal in your name. 
O Holy Father, I want to be just like you. 
  
You’re my Father. You’re my hero. 
May my spirit walk with you. 
Train my mind to see the lost ones. 
Tune my ears to hear your voice. 
May my soul shine with your light. 
Dear Holy Father, I want to be just like you. 
  
You’re my light. You’re my hero. 
You know all I am and what I will be. 
Take this one soul and make it like yours.  
Dear Dad, I want to be just like you.

    New England. 1898. The Prescott Family is Boston. In that bygone golden age, Patriarch Charles presides over both his shipping line and family with a sure and strong hand, while wife Jocelyn is feeling her authority usurped by her powerfully minded mother-in-law, Augusta. Their children, Marietta, Aurora and Barton find themselves trying to make their way in a constantly changing world - filled with social upheaval and technological advancements.  The Prescott's house staff goes about their duties under the supervision of the taciturn butler, Williams. Effortlessly integrating historical events into its narrative (including the second running of the American Marathon - later re-named the Boston Marathon), and filled with intrigue, warmth, and drama writ large, the Colonial Radio Theatre invites you into the Prescott household for an evocative, unforgettable depiction of Boston life as lived by those who set the pace.  Williams has set an extra place for you at the table - won't you join us on Beacon Hill?
