Free Admission Cast- Lia Loomis, Linnae D'Auria, Sophe Locke, Avry LaVallee, Rozamond Lincoln- Day This  play deals with a widow & her 2 daughters, one of whom finds  fulfillment in a science project. Beatrice was a mother ... and the  embittered ringmaster of the circus Hunsdorfer featuring three  generations of crazy ladies living under the sloppiest big top on earth.  Nanny was no problem. She sat and stared and stayed silent as a  venerable vegetable should. Ruth was half-mad and easily bought with an  occasional cigarette. But how in the world would Beatrice control  Tillie--keeper of rabbits, dreamer of atoms, true believer in life,  hope, and the effect of gamma rays on man-in-the-moon marigolds
