Wat’s story “Lady in the Moon” is a dynamic story about family relationships & aging & self awareness. It’s the type of story that resonates long after read. This story had me thinking of my grandmother & father when they battled their illnesses.

My dream is to see Sarah Snook on Broadway this spring in THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY, but I suspect that ticket will be hard to get. In the meantime, here she is dressed in White Rabbit wrappers, on the occasion of Oscar Wilde's birthday.
