This is usually where I tell you to stick around for a lively discussion, but that is not happening this week. This episode took a lot out of me and a lot more time than I expected, so I didn’t have time for a cast and author talk. But there’ll be one. Sometime. I promise. 

Next week on A Blind Play: Episode 27: “Barbecue” adapted from the short story The Barbecue by Ron Pullins.
