"Don't play what's there. Play what's not there." - Miles Davis NOTE FROM YEHUDA HYMAN I was trying to make a piece about my mother. But it also had to be about my father. And me. I love stories about ordinary people. In this performance you will meet some ordinary people who just happen to be my parents. I wish to express my deepest thanks to LABA and the 14th Street Y for giving us the space, time, support and encouragement to create this work over the last three years. Special thanks also to the Jewish Plays Project and the Museum of Jewish Heritage for also being an integral part of the development of The Mar Vista. I thank my teachers and fellow-grad students at Sarah Lawrence College where this work began its development. - Yehuda
