Local playwright, Connie Terwilliger comes to The Lamplighters Community Theatre for the world premiere of her play, Silkworms. Three generations of strong women growing together in love and wisdom. Connie Terwilliger is known for her acting and voice over work in San Diego. She has performed several times at The Lamplighters Theatre, as well as many other community theatres in San Diego. She has written a play and we have the honor of being the first theatre to put it up on stage. Her story is of 3 generations of strong women whose struggles for love and the beauty of life play out in different ways. The grandmother, an immigrant with the wisdom of age. The daughter, driven to achieve perfection at the expense of love and happiness. The granddaughter, much like her mother, striving to find balance. This story is mostly true, the names have been changed to protect the innocent. It is clearly autobiographical, featuring a younger Connie, her mom and her grandmother. Much of her grandmother's dialog was taken from a two-hour cassette tape that her mother asked her to record. You will be able to relate, rejoice, share regret, and celebrate with the characters. You will leave with a warmth in your heart and a grin on your face, which we can all use a lot of these days. Gioia de vivere! It's time to live...to love!
