Nice People Dancing to Good Country Music by Lee Blessing

In this sharply comic, romantic and affecting play, Blessing explores the heartaches and curious – and often unfortunate – eccentricities of Eve and her niece Catherine, two women who live over a country music bar in Houston, Texas. Jan 22-23, Profile Theater, 3430 SE Belmont, suggested $10.

"A Harley stands erect on its own 2 wheels -- not like this [beat up truck] mechanical puddle."

"The last time I asked a girl to marry me she said, "Yes, Ray."

"some shitkicker I met in an airport"

"a professor of Latvian"

"J-Bob? That's what you're calling [Jason] now?"

"You're comin' on to the bride of Christ [a nun]."

"Four billion people all talkin' like Gomer Pile."

"I don't care if Houston is stupid: it's growin' like a damn fungus."
