On Saturday May 3, 2008 there was a beautiful reading of ONE DAY: Scenes from Sarah House, a play by Doris Baizley of Los Angeles. The reading was held at the Trinity Episcopal Church, in the Fireside Room at 7 pm. The event turned out to be a great success and the turn out was higher than we had expected.
