Jonathan Bank, artistic director of the Mint Theater and director of "Wife to James Whelan," and Janie Brookshire, who stars as 'Nan', talk about the play. It's the first of two plays by Theresa Deevy and produced by the Mint, being shown in the next two years. The plays are part of the "Teresa Deevy Project," which will also include readings, recordings and publications. Set in a small town in the middle of Ireland, the play tells the story of star-crossed lovers. “Wife to James Whelan” is playing at the Mint Theater through October 3.

I want to see the play, but I'm a Senior, and $55 is pretty expensive and out of my budget. What can I do?
