Thursday through Saturday performances will be at 7:30 p.m. and the Sunday matinee will begin at 2 p.m. “The O’Conner Girls,” written by playwright Katie Forgette, tells the story of a Minnesota family in 1997 grieving the loss of their patriarch. His wife and grown children reunite over the Christmas season to relive painful and joyful memories. “You would think it’s a sad play, but that’s not the case,” said play director Andy Henrickson. “We are all with family during difficult familial situations. The play is a great testament to the faith this family has.” Henrickson says part of the play’s appeal will be its relatability. “The family is Catholic and the parents are pre-Vatican II, so it speaks to different times,” he said. The relatability factor increases the probability of audience members getting invested in the play. “It has a theme of reconciliation because of things that are revealed about this family over the course of the play,” said Henrickson. “It speaks about the relationship the father had with his daughters and the tension there that came from his experience in coming back from the war a changed person.” The play has a small but powerful cast, according to HenDON’T GET LEFT rickson.
