Quotes About Life

I am waiting for a sign that will indicate to me what meaning I must give to my life, but right now my existence is satisfactory.

Belly Up To 'Bill W. and Dr. Bob' at New Repertory Theatre

Belly Up To 'Bill W. and Dr. Bob' at New Repertory Theatre

"Bill W. and Dr. Bob" by Stephen Bergman and Janet Surrey

Directed by Rick Lombardo

Performances through March 26, 2006 Box Office 617-923-8487 www.newrep.org

The play opens on a stark set with the two protagonists standing downstage, about fifteen feet apart, and they each address the audience. First, we hear, "I’m Bill and I’m an alcoholic," greeted by, "Hi, Bill" in response. Next, the announcement, "I’m Bob and I’m an alcoholic," followed by a similar echo. This clever device creates the feeling that we are all at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting and about to hear the life story of each of these founders of the international organization. That is both the good news and the bad news, for there is much of interest in the tale of how these two men met, got sober, and revolutionized treatment for drunks. However, at just under three hours, the play is simply too long.

Famous Quotes

Thinking men cannot be ruled.

Ayn Rand Quotes

The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights,
cannot claim to be defenders of minorities.
- Ayn Rand

same techniques. The Digital Storytelling Centre in California
pioneered digital storytelling and Lesley Jenkins will talk
about the training workshop she attended as part of her
Churchill Fellowship.



Helen Klaebe, public historian on the Kelvin Grove Urban Village
History Project, will talk about creating her own digital story
and about helping others to create theirs as part of the history
project..



Helen and Lesley will show examples of their work.



When: Thursday 23 February 2006

6.00 pm - 7.30 pm

(The Annual General Meeting and Committee Meeting of the Oral
History Association of Australia (Qld Inc.) will be conducted
