FEATURE
Actor and beloved drama teacher Francesca Sobrer appears in this weekend’s final performances of the Bloomington Playwrights Project production, “Home”. She plays a manipulative Texas mother desperate for her daughter’s love and understanding. It’s a challenging role as Sobrer is on stage for almost the entire length of the play. She deals with her daughter as three different times in the daughter’s life. The daughter is played by three different actresses. Francesca says boredom led her to a life in the theater. She joins Michael Glab on this week’s edition of Big Talk.
