April 15 through May 21, 2000 The play tells the story of a young man named David Beeves who has the perhaps unlucky fortune of getting everything his heart desires. Everything always goes his way, while the fortunes of his friends and family rise and fall like those of average people. The pressure of when he too might fall pushes him to the edge of sanity as he struggles to understand and control his fate. "The play is really a fable," said Fields. "As Arthur says about it: 'It doesn't take place in Ohio. It takes place hovering about three feet over Ohio.' It also has a surprising amount of humor."   Set Designer: Katherine FERWERDA Costume Designer: Dean CAMERON Hair & Makeup Design: Joyce LITTRELL Lighting Designer: Matthew O'DONNELL Sound Designer: Robin E.
