Lee’s costumes, Paul Whitaker’s lighting, and Broken Chord Collective’s sound are great. Jackson Gay’s staging is smooth, and she gets great performances from both the child actors, Roman Malenda, Alexa Skye Swinton, RJ Vercellone, and Sloane Wolfe, all terrific. The adult cast, are equally terrific. You may recognize Chris Ghaffari from Hartford Stage’s Romeo and Juliet, and Megan Byrne from TheaterWorks’ The Wolves. I especially enjoyed Brad Heberlee’s adult Carl, in juxtaposition with RJ Vercellone’s child Carl. Make Believe is a play with children but not for children, and the sibling revelry, not always harmonic, is rich. I suspect this new play has great promise in other theatres, if they can find child actors as professional as these, and a director like Jackson Gay, who has coaxed great performances from them.

UMD Sophomore Sean Reall (North Providence, R.I.) and junior Tony Slaughter (Springfield, Mass.) each returned third quarter fumbles for touchdowns. The visiting Corsairs (2-1, 1-0 MASCAC) trailed 9-0 at the break but turned that deficit into a five point lead in just a 20-second span early in the third stanza, as senior Samuel Ejiasi’s (Forney, Tex.) strip sack was recovered and returned 42 yards for a touchdown by Reall to slice the host Owls’ (1-2, 0-1 MASCAC) lead to 9-7. Freshman Javien Delgado (Lynn, Mass.) then recovered a Westfield State fumble on the ensuing kickoff on the hosts’ 23-yard line, and senior Matt Mitchell (Westerly, R.I.) found the end zone from that distance two plays later to give UMass Dartmouth a 14-9 advantage.

Tonight: Give high fives to those around you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Close relating with an associate produces a strong sense of togetherness. Your willingness to reveal more of what is going on Crosswords within yourself adds to this person’s comfort. As a result, he or she will start revealing more with DOGS of C-KENNEL Mick and Mason Mastroianni you. Tonight: Make time for a special person. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH You could be more open to change than you realize. You recognize your moodiness, but you know that it doesn’t indicate a long-term change.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH You might be more mellow than you think. The unexpected occurs within a part- nership. You might want to make a change, but how, and in what direction?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Your creativity helps you deal with a very difficult person who might be viewed as being closed down.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Tension mounts, as does your ability to get past a problem, probably on the domestic front. You might want to schedule some down- time for reflection and re-evaluation. Your efforts will be appreciated beyond your expectations. Tonight: Buy a favorite dessert on the way home. Rick Detorie SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ONE BIG HAPPY HHHH A conversation of depth between you and a loved one can’t be escaped, and could be worthwhile. You might want to set the stage for this talk. Relax more, and ultimately you will be happy with the results. Tonight: Create the mood you want at a place you love. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You might be dealing with recent extravagances. On the other hand, you also might be creating a valid and workable budget. Your serious attitude carries you far. Remain sensitive to those around you, especially a loved one. Tonight: Prove that fun doesn’t have to break the bank. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH You could breeze through the day ANDY CAPP Mahoney, Goldsmith and Garnett with considerable ease, though you might be overly serious at some point. Someone close to you attempts to lift your spirits. The unexpected occurs with a new friend. Your openness could make or break this bond. Tonight: Do what you want. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH If you play it low-key, you won’t be unhappy. You have the ability to change your mind and head in a different direction. Your flex- ibility surprises people who look to you as an Cryptoquip authority figure. Be more direct in how you deal with a problem. Tonight: Go for a good night’s sleep. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You could be surprised by what you ZACK HILL John Deering and John Newcombe hear. Your choices might feel limited. If you apply your imagination, however, workable solutions appear. Your discussions could be quite animated. Demonstrate your caring toward a loved one. Tonight: Dinner at a favorite place.
