When the lights came up on the bassinet in the otherwise darkness of the stage, the image more or less stands for everything that follows - childhood, loneliness and abandonment.

    Baal Of Desire Ben Stout Acting I Todd Mcinerney 11-14-96 On Thursday, November 7, I saw a performance of Baal, written by BertoltBrecht and directed by Evan Parry.

At the end of the show I felt like it was well worth the time, and I felt like I may have ripped SCC off by only paying three dollars! I had no idea what to expect.

I was most impressed with the entire feel of the Ensemble Theatre, from the calmness and quietness of the entire area, to its interior design...
