Quantum Theatre is coming to the Friendship/Bloomfield neighborhood! Don't miss our Spring production: *The Electric Baby*<http://www.quantumtheatre.com/season/the-electric-baby/> World Premiere By *Stefanie Zadravec* Directed by *Daniella Topol* *March 29–April 22, 2012* (Wed-Sat, 8pm; Sun, 7pm) * Waldorf School of Pittsburgh* 201 S. Winebiddle St. Pittsburgh, PA 15224 (map it)<http://maps.google.com/maps?q=waldorf+school+of+pittsburgh&ll=40.466066,-79…> The Baby is fragile yet powerful. His tale of urban folklore connects his Romanian mother and his Nigerian father with colorful Americans in Pittsburgh, PA. Zadravec’s prize-winning play about people from besieged corners of the globe, *Honey Brown Eyes*, brought her to national prominence. *The Electric Baby* reflects time she spent in Pittsburgh. Quantum unites her with director Daniella Topol, whose artistic start at Carnegie Mellon University and City Theatre preceded the impact she now makes across the country developing new plays.

Re: [Highland Park] many thanks

That's Highland Park... Where neighbors care about their neighborhood and especially about their neighbors! Its a great place to live!!! Mary Lee In a message dated 2/7/2012 6:42:07 A.M. Eastern Standard Time, emorypatti(a)gmail.com writes: I just wanted to say thanks for a recent random act of kindness. I recently posted on the listserve about needing sheets for my mother's hospital bed. Many people responded, but I didn't actually connect with all of them when I replied. I was starting to feel defeated in my attempts. I returned home from visiting my mom and felt completely overwhelmed. Then I got a knock at my door and there was a stranger who had come to drop off sheets. He actually didn't have any lying around the house, so he went out and bought some! It may seem like a small gesture but it really touched me. I have to admit I broke down crying. The relief I experienced because of his simple gesture gave me hope that the tiny things I can do for my mom actually do make a difference. I don't want to put his name on here without his permission, but I did want to share. It made my day. Thank you for everyone who responded and rest assured I'm still looking for sheets.
