Molly Sweeney has lived within a happy, capable and independent darkness since she was 10 months old.
When Frank, her restless, unemployed and enthusiastic husband makes her blindness his latest cause, he recruits Dr. Rice, a once-famous surgeon who, despite being half-drowned in Irish whiskey, agrees to attempt to restore Molly’s sight.
When the bandages come off, Molly, Frank and Mr. Rice discover the differences between seeing and understanding as they face the terrible consequences of a medical miracle.
The Vortex Theatre will present “Molly Sweeney” by the famed Irish playwright Brian Friel online at vortexabq.org in performances at 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 19 and Saturday, March 20; and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, March 21. Performances continue on weekends through March 28. Admission is free with website reservations.

“Remembering Darwin” incorporates everyone but the famed naturalist and founder of the theory of evolution by natural selection.
The Vortex Theatre will present Brian Hansen’s play online beginning on Friday, Feb. 19.
Charles Darwin was a loner, an iconoclast whose brilliance was eclipsed by his shyness. The geologist and biologist published his theory of evolution with compelling evidence in his 1859 book “On the Origin of Species.”

Long fascinated by the founder of evolutionary theory, playwright and retired University of New Mexico theater professor Hansen decided to present the scientist through the eyes of those around him.
