Breathe Art Theatre Project latest play is running for two more weeks at the Furniture Factory in Midtown.

WIT is a rare beast: art of the heart and mind. It examines human existence and what makes life worth living, while telling the story of a poetry scholar who has been diagnosed with terminal ovarian cancer. The play is not about cancer, or doctors, it is about kindness, compassion and relationships - but with arrogance. It is a powerful piece, with depth and humor, that leaves an impression long after the curtain falls.

Bob Delaney The Monitor theatre critic:
"At it's best Breathe Art can be very impressive indeed, and this is an example of it at it's very best."
"Describing Diane Hill's portrayal of cancer patient Vivian Bearing could exhaust any critic's arsenal of superlatives. Her performance is exquisite, excellent, extraordinary. .."
"Masterfully directed by Courtney Burkett, this is a production sure to prove both moving and memorable."

Robert Bethune Between the Lines theatre critic-
"Diane Hill captures the cutting brilliance and fierce will of Bearing to the last detail, accurate to the slightest footnote or punctuation mark."
"A tough minded play for an audience worthy of it's steel."

Director: Courtney Burkett
Featuring: Diane Hill**, Mark Robson, Sarah Clare Meyer, Dylan MacDonald, Connie Cowper, Rachel Kiner, Jessica Lake (**member of Actors' Equity Association)
