DESCRIPTION:FREE!\nFood and Drinks!\n\nPlease join the Dramatists Guild for an SF 
 Footlights reading of DIVIDE THE LIVING CHILD written and directed by Terry 
 Baum\n\nStarring:\nGwyneth Richards, Paula Barish, Katie Robbins, Carolyn 
 Myers, and Amber Sommerfeld\n\nTime: 1943, in Nazi-occupied Holland. Place: 
 The living room of a small apartment in Amsterdam. Torrie, a devout 
 Christian welcomes two Jews into her home: Miriam and her 14-year-old 
 daughter, Hannah. \n\nMiriam must stay in the apartment, invisible, while 
 Hannah goes intothe world with a new identity as Helen, Torrie's niece. 
 Tension between the three builds as Torrie pressures Hannah to convert to 
 Christianity. \n\nTo make matters worse, a nosy neighbor who supports the 
 Nazi Occupation suspects that Hannah is not the Christian niece she 
 pretends to be. \n\nHannah is torn between her Jewish identity and her life 
 as Helen in a Christian world. Miriam must decide what is best for her 
 daughter's survival -- even if it means Miriam must leave the the only safe 
 place she knows.\n\nTERRY BAUM's most recent work as playwright and actress 
 was HICK: A Love Story, The Romance of Lorena Hickok & Eleanor Roosevelt, 
 which had a sold-out run at the Eureka Theatre in July, and received 
 critical acclaim. She has written fifteen plays and co-written four. Her 
 work explores gay rights, immigrant rights, feminism, anti-Semitism, 
 medical-ethical dilemmas, and the pursuit of true love. Four of her plays 
 have been published, produced all over the world, and translated into 
 French, Dutch, Italian, and Swedish. DOS LESBOS, a Play by, for, and about 
 Perverts (1981, with Carolyn Myers) inspired the first anthology of lesbian 
 plays (Places, Please 1985). An Italian production of Dos Lesbos offended 
 the Pope during World Pride 2000 in Rome.\n\nSince 2008, Baum has been 
 one-half of The Crackpot Crones, performing subversive feminist comedy and 
 improvisation throughout the U.S with Carolyn Myers. Last year was a banner 
 year for The Crones, with four productions, three of them new work: a 
 workshop version of HICK, BRIDE OF LESBOSTEIN, and CRONES FOR THE HOLIDAYS: 
 The Sequel. Baum was the Green candidate for Mayor of San Francisco in 
 2011.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2014/10/01/18762290.php
