The Lake Charles Little Theatre presents Grace & Glorie. Estelle Parsons and Lucie Arnaz starred on Broadway in this charmer set in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Grace, a feisty 90 year old cancer patient, has checked herself out of the hospital and returned to her beloved homestead cottage to die alone. The volunteer hospice worker who appears with the pain medication Grace willfully left behind is a Harvard MBA recently transplanted to this rural backwater from New York. Glorie is tense, unhappy and guilt ridden, her only child having been killed in an auto accident when she was driving. As she attempts to care for and comfort the cantankerous rustic, this sophisticated urbanite gains new perspectives on values and life’s highs and lows. Directed by James Johnson. Performances are from February 24th to March 11th at 7:30 p.m. (2 p.m. on Sundays). Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for seniors and students.
