  • The Beginning Of
    the beginning of THE WEDDING PLANNER (from ROMANTIC FOOLS) a short comedy by Rich Orloff (ROMANTIC FOOLS, a comic revue for one man and one woman, is published and licensed by Playscripts, Inc. www.playscripts.com) The woman enters and addresses us: WOMAN When a woman and a man become engaged – it’s a magical moment, filled with the promise of love, affection and a life overflowing with joy. Then you realize you have to plan a wedding, and that magical moment is history. For months and months, you and your betrothed have to figure out a thousand details which lead to that special day when you think, “If I can make it through this, marriage will be easy.” After all that work, I think the reason the bride and groom get to march down the aisle first is so that nobody can get between them and the champagne. To help reduce the stress of all that a wedding entails, most people turn to a professional with expertise, someone they can trust, a wedding planner. The WEDDING PLANNER (MAN) enters. MAN Did I hear you say you’re looking for a wedding planner? WOMAN Well – MAN Let me present myself. He hands her a card. WOMAN “Charles H. Hungadunga the Third, Wedding and Funeral Planner. All your needs from Married to Buried.” The Wedding Planner EXCERPT, 2 MAN I’m the only wedding planner who offers a guarantee. WOMAN A guarantee?

  • Planning a Catholic Wedding
    Planning a Catholic Wedding "Make [your wedding] a real celebration – because marriage is a celebration – a Christian celebration, not a worldly feast! … What happened in Cana 2000 years ago, happens today at every wedding celebration: that which makes your wedding full and profoundly true will be the presence of the Lord who reveals himself and gives his grace. It is his presence that offers the 'good wine', he is the secret to full joy, that which truly warms the heart. "It is good that your wedding be simple and make what is truly important stand out. Some are more concerned with the exterior details, with the banquet, the photographs, the clothes, the flowers…These are important for a celebration, but only if they point to the real reason for your joy: the Lord's blessing on your love." - —Pope Francis’ address to engaged couples in Rome, February 14, 2014 Nowadays many engaged couples handle a lot of their own wedding planning. When at least one of the individuals is Catholic this can include making arrangements to be married in a Catholic church. Take time to prepare and plan The Roman Catholic Diocese of Peterborough requires a preparation period of one year for couples who want to be married in the Church. The preparation includes a contact with the parish in which they want to have their wedding. It is important to talk with the parish priest or deacon about what the parish allows and expects in a celebration. It is also possible that the parish can offer specific help and resources.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.
