Ed Asner in FDRAward-winning actor and entertainer Ed Asner will take center 
stage at Galveston's Grand 1894 Opera House when he stars as FDR on Saturday, 
January 26 at 8pm. This one-man-show explores the life of one of America's 
best-loved presidents. Powerful and thought provoking, this play by Dore Schary 
follows FDR from his inauguration in 1933 to the trials of World War II - as 
Franklin D. Roosevelt was the only president to have been elected for more than 
two terms.

A Steady Rain Held Over for 1 Final Weekend! 
A Steady Rain is a play by Keith Huff, at island ETC Friday and Saturday. With 
a plot similar to a real-life event involving Jeffrey Dahmer, it focuses on two 
Chicago policemen who inadvertently return a Vietnamese boy to a cannibalistic 
serial killer who claims to be the child's uncle. When he later becomes the 
man's latest victim, the lifelong friendship of the two men is threatened when 
it becomes clear someone must bear responsibility for their egregious failure 
to assess the situation accurately. The play alternates between two separate 
monologues and present-moment dialogue scenes.

From the Blog: Thinking About Suing a Cruise Line?  Good Luck with That!So, you 
want to file a law-suit against a cruise line! First of all, Lorraine says 
"good luck with that!" Cruise ships are protected by a myriad of laws and 
jurisdictions, not to mention the "limitations of liabilities" as stated in 
their cruise contracts (have you ever actually read one before clicking the 
"accept" button?)
