| The relationship between Eva (Kate Mulgrew)
and Jeffrey (sic) (William Gray Espy) is strained in the play. They are
down on their luck and have no money. Both enjoyed working together and
meeting fans. |

of a Year - William Gray Espy Returns to the Stage" - Daytime TV (Feb.
1977)

An English play, it was startling to see the
person we had become accustomed to as Snapper with a British accent. Epsy
plays Jeffrey (sic) and Kate Mulgrew (Mary Ryan, Ryan's Hope), his
wife, Eva. Helen Gallagher (Maeve Ryan, Ryan's Hope) played Marion,
the wife of Jim Pritchett's (Dr. Matt Powers on The Doctors) Ronald.
Jada Rowland (Carolee Aldrich, The Doctors) and Lewis Arlt (David
Sloane, Search for Tomorrow) were Jane and Sidney.
This play is not the light-hearted comedy
that the previous Plaza Suite was, but more dramatic, with comedic
overtones.
The recent hit stage plays toured by Encore
Productions have been well received, and it does give the fans a great
chance to see their favorite stars in other theatrical roles, as well as
meet them after the play. |
