Garland, Texas – Set in a small Texas town in anytime, USA, Daddy’s Dyin’ concerns the reunion of a family gathered to await the imminent death of their patriarch, who has recently suffered a physically as well as mentally disabling stroke. In essence, however, it is not the story of the impending demise of the father or of the drafting of his will, but of a rebirth of the spirit of the family unit. Without becoming ponderous, losing a sense of humor or pandering to timeworn clichés about Texans or Texas drawls, the story is fast and delicious, with funny moments, tense moments, touching moments, and characters you care about. Tickets are $15-$22 and are available at www.GarlandArtsBoxOffice.com or by calling 972-205-2790. For more information visit www.GarlandCivicTheatre.org.
