Forge Theatre opens David Lindsay-Abaire drama, RABBIT HOLE, on February 25

Becca and Howie had the perfect life – a great marriage, a beautiful house, and a lovely son. But a tragic accident forces them to move beyond their personal grief and explore a range of emotions as they try to find new meaning in the life that remains.

Heartbreaking and improbably funny, this drama of a family in crisis won the 2007 Pulitzer Prize in Drama for playwright David Lindsay-Abaire, who has adapted his script for the recently-released film version starring Oscar-nominee Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart.

Forge Theatre in Phoenixville is proud to present RABBIT HOLE. Directed by Aaron Gould, the play features Heather Reese, Eric Jarrell, DeeDee Mann, Kevin Fennell, and Deb Braak.

On Sunday, March 6, immediately following the 2:00 matinee performance, audience members are invited to join the cast and crew for a post-show discussion exploring the issues and emotions that the play addresses. The talk-back will be led by local actress and certified psychodramatist, Lauren Rozensky Flanagan.

Performances of RABBIT HOLE are February 25, 26, March 4, 5, 10, 11 and 12 at 8:00 PM and March 6 at 2:00 PM. Closes March 12. Adults $12, Students $10.

Forge Theatre, now in its 49th year, is at 241 First Avenue in Phoenixville. For tickets and information, call 610-935-1920 or visit http://ForgeTheatre.org.

Several Local Businesses Closing Up Shop

Over the next couple of months, three local businesses will be closing their doors. On Saturday, February 16th, Polka Dots will be closing their store at 246 Bridge Street. The shop, a women's clothing boutique, opened nearly two and a half years ago but has recently found business slow. --- Originally, (owner Susan) Randels said that the store was doing well, but that the momentum could not keep up. "The things that sold in Paoli didn't sell in Phoenixville," she said, adding that some customers thought that the store was too expensive or the sizing did not go high enough (size 12 being the highest size sold). "We tried everything." Randels also said that parking was an issue for many of her customers who could either not find spaces or did not feel safe parking behind the store. --- Polka Dots remains open until the 16th, with hours on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. The phone number is 610-935-5914.

Barry Cassidy Addresses Downtown Rumors

Today's Phoenix ran an article written by Barry Cassidy in which he addressed the various rumors that have been circulating regarding the immediate futures of several local businesses. He paints a much rosier picture than some of the comments here would have you believe. From the article: --- On Monday someone came in and told me Molly Maguire's was closing. I knew that was not correct because they are expanding, not closing. Then about 20 minutes after than I heard from someone else that 101 was closing and the building was going to become a McDonalds. I knew that was not correct either. Marietu' Fanny from the crepe joint at Bridge and Gay called me and was upset that she heard someone at the business association meeting say she was closing... She went on to tell me that they were doing well... Then I heard probably the most outrageous rumor of all... Ellie's Choice is closing. Now think about this one, folks. Here, Ellie has been here for a long time, she was here ...
