Elaine Blanchard, storyteller, actor and writer, has written a play,
"For Goodness Sake," with David Prete.
Based on a true story, Blanchard and Prete have created a powerful solo performance showing the effects of oppression (sexual, religious and racial) on one human being. The story involves fourteen characters and Blanchard performs all of the roles. A compelling performer, Elaine invites the audience to go with her on a journey of redemption and transformation.
